Is it over yet? If not you think he can do it?

I don't.

I'd bet a hat on it but don't know if I can trust you.

I just can't get excited about that guy winning another bracelet. I'd rather have Chan or Doyle do it.

It could very well be an act but I have a feeling he is a jerk type when the cameras aren't there too.

"I can dodge bullets baby"

Ugh. Bastard is from or at least lived in Madison.

baker just busted, im watching the live stream , really boring b/c they aren't showing chip counts or cards, just the action and floor commentary

would be amazing if phil could pull this off, we wouldn't hear the end of it

They can't get a full size table for a 10k event final table?

 

[PocketAces]

If he doesn't win he will melt down. But who wouldn't. I shouldn't be cheering against anyone but he bothers me.

I'd rather have Juanda take it down.

 

[greggraffin]

how many cards are you dealt and are you trying to mkae the lowest possible hand?

 

[MadJack]

They're playing draw poker, it is full size.

 

[MadJack]

how many cards are you dealt and are you trying to mkae the lowest possible hand?

5 card draw 2-7 is lowest possible hand. Ace is high and so is a straight.

 

[PocketAces]

They're playing draw poker, it is full size.

Ah. Ok. Looked smaller than normal to me.

 

[greggraffin]

phil and richard playing a big pot right now

 

[greggraffin]

richard tanking, phil set him all in

 

[MadJack]

He's mowing them down.

HUGE chip lead.

 

[greggraffin]

he just knocked out nick schulman

 

[PocketAces]

They is a great tournament player. On tv and in print the other players don't seem to respect his cash game. They must do that just to tilt him.

Phil Hellmuth - 2,555,000
Richard Ashby - 680,000
John Juanda - 360,000
Steve Sung - 185,000

Wait. Is this thread about cheering on Hellmuth? I hope not. What a fucking idiot.
