Is Phil Hellmuth the most hated player in the poker world?

PS: I personally think he's interesting, but many people seem to dislike him.

No he isnt. It would be one of the Black Friday guys. Howard Lederer.

I used to admire Howard Lederer before that Friday incident.

For women, it was hard to like Annie Duke.

So many to choose from so little time, actually I understand why many players have motivation to either create or exaggerate an image and then find ways to exploit it at a later time. To dislike a person or there image is one thing but to actually hate is another thing.

You do know that the word "dislike" means basically the same thing as hate. It's just a nicer way of saying it. I personally don't hate PH. I find him interesting and follow him on social media. I do know many do not like him due to his brashness, arrogance, very insulting of other players, etc. The problem with Phil is he lets his emotions get the best of him at the table. Especially when he loses.

To say that Phil is the most hated is too much, I would say not the most pleasant one for sure. William Kassouf tops my vile rating.

I'm wondering if this is all about to change with the allegations of cheating players... Maybe we could see a new least favourite come up!

I do not hate Phil
I think he is a drama queen

I hate players who have been thinking for too long the most

Yeah, Bill Perkins said on Twitter there is a new poker cheating scandal, although he hasn't given details away yet

Any time there are programs that can be hacked, people will try to cheat the system. I am sure many have used a master account to know what other players have, but haven't been caught. I heard of this player that was suspected of cheating because he always seemed to make the "right" call. He said he wasn't cheating, but he's won a lot of money. Don't recall his name. Really unfair, but greed makes people do stuff that is wrong. I know cheating scandals ended the Ultimate Bet and Full Tilt Poker sites. UB is when I started playing online. I have to say that I won regularly, not a lot on money, but I withdrew around $500 monthly.

I am sure he'll have trouble finding players who want to play with him. Cheating is just as bad as stealing, maybe worse.

Used to be Phil H but honestly after seeing some Knuckleheads calling all in with a 3 8 o and hitting a full house

I understand his frustration

It's just all part of the fun

No he isnt. Tony G is

Kassoof, then TonyG and then Mercier

Tony g. The way he acts is beyond out of line..

There's no denying that Phill isn't the most pleasant player to share a table with.. but Tony G wins when it comes to "hate".. such a hard person to deal with, omg

personally something happens with phill at a live table would not be nice, but what it has is that many times they laugh their attitudes so it is not the most hated

Chris Ferguson and Howard Lederer

typical dude in today’s environment. if he has an opinion, it’s always right. anyone else that has different opinion (doesn’t matter on what) dnegs treats them like a moron

Mike matusow

I think recently it is Daniel Negreanu, he used to be very liked person but he is doing weird things now, like insulting his viewer on stream
