I thought Tony G was the biggest jerk in poker, but this guy is by far the douchiest guy to ever play poker. He got stacked and started to talk crap about Schaun Deeb`s wife.



I don't think poker needs people like him.

Tony G is a oure gambler. A pure Hustler. I think he'should pretty well known now for lying to Helmuth in a hand, different moral philosophies will see this behavior differently.

This guy is totally losing the plot - seeing him breakdown in Twitter and Facebook is really difficult to watch.

Personally, I do not like him. For the game of poker, I think that he is great. Like Phil Hellmuth, Tony G, Will Kassouf, Mike Dentale, and every other loud mouth, Hashbrown King has his moment in poker which is causing a buzz. I think what he is doing with LATB is great. I know that I'll be watching his HU matches, and I hope Doug Polk plays him before the summer.

Think about it, who wasn't rooting for Deeb when his Q8 beat Hash's AK. That was a just great! I don't really like Deeb either with some of his antics in the past, but I was rooting for him.

To answer your question, Phil Hellmuth is the biggest jerk in poker. He has been around the longest, he berates both amateurs and pros at and off the poker table, and I'm sure he will out last all the wannabe poker brats :)

Tony G acts like a douche to tilt his opponents, and I honestly think that he is not that bad of a guy, and is definitely entertaining to watch.

This guy on the other hand is a total dick. There are some other honorable mentions that I can't recall off the top of my head. They involve hollywooding slow-rolls.

Was Hashtag King OUT OF LINE on Poker Night in America???? - YouTube

Hashtag King, "the biggest jerk in poker" gets WRECKED for $20,000 ? Live at the Bike! - YouTube

I don't think poker needs people like him.

yeah i agree , i watched the stream and he was waaaaaaay out of line, it is not his first time to disrespect other player on the table . the weird part that they keep inviting him back in live streamed events and tv events. he may be good tv for some ppl, but he is bad for poker for sure.

Well that was fun while it lasted. "HASHBROWN KING REMOVED FROM LIVE AT THE BIKE LINE-UP"

This all because Shaun Deeb said we would never play at LATB since they were featuring HU matches with Hash.

I dont know what everybodys problem is with this guy. I mean sure hes a huge douche but hes clearly putting on an act. Poker on TV has become BEYOND boring ever since the internet players took all the personality and style out of the game. Every story needs a villain and hashtag king is the villain that poker desperately needs right now!

Villians don't last long once their identities are known to the public .

Tony G, Kassouf and Justin Schwartz are the worst.

No, he is not.

Call your opponent a scumbag, cheater, donk, idiot from nothern europe. I don't care.

But you can't talk about family.
That crap is not funny.

^ this

watching poker on tv is BORING and pretty pointless IMHO when you can just bring up a game online and actually play

to make good tv you need drama and/or comedy

a good (television) director is also important. You gotta cut away from some stuff

still, when a player is down to the felt, if he won't leave the seat, remove him

Old saying, No such thing as bad press. But always seems that a person pops up from time to time. Just look at Kassouff

Being the main villain can be much more elegant and sophisticated, without sinking so low. It looks pathetic.

Hashtag King is the equivalent of reality TV coming to Poker. Tries to stir up drama to remain relevant in poker news.

Anybody else see that thing where he couldn't afford a 80$ bill and had like 8 declined credit cards?

Sweet justice.

Like people say on youtube comments, he always needs a wire. To play poker and eat. I wonder why he didn't offer his passport and watches again?:D:D

Personally, I think that physical and verbal aggression in poker should be prohibited. To my point of view, physical and verbal violence should have the same prohibitive sanction
