POKER INFO - PROILE - Phil Hellmuth

Phil gets off on the fact that he now has an identity. Because ESPN made it known that he is the "Poker Brat", and continues to show footage of it, he feeds off of the fact that he has some sort of identity that people respond to. So he may have been a jerk before for real, but now he is just being an asshole for the TV time.

phil hellmuth is a poker god

Fun to watch just to see the him meltdown when he loses a pot. Great reader of other players but lets his emotions get the best of him and affect his moreso than a great player should. I've read many poker books, but haven't bothered to pick up his, because I truly believe he wouldn't impart any useful knowledge onto anyone else.

phil ur really good, i hope to have the honor to play at the same table as you some day, im only 15, but soon!

phil is a crybaby ...he has no class. What good is knowledge if you dont apply it. He has no clue..who cares about his braclets..what does he have right now?

mor than u'll ever

I think Phil is the funniest guy in the world without meaning to be. He got punched out by sam grizzle. HAHAHAHA

it is ridiculous how much phil gets sucked out on. People complain about his attitude but if you put all your money in constantly at at least a 3 to 1 favorite and have some ammature or bullshit player catch a bellybuster and suck out on you you would complain too. Shit i wouldn't even take it as well as phil does. keep up the good work phil. For real if there wasn't luck involved you(or me) would win them all.

jeff b. good point

Phil is the most overrated crybaby around. His books imply that he has zero poker knowledge to impart. His Omaha chapter....was that a joke or was he trying to teach people to be ridiculously bad on purpose. When I've played at the same table as him, he's cried and moaned about everything. He has the perspective of a 5-year old. If he bluffs, it's obviously a great bluff and you're a moron for not folding. If you draw out on him, you're a moron. When he draws out on you, he's a genius. Ev and pot odds seem to mean nothing to him, except when they support his own arguement. I'm of the opinion he didn't drop out of school because of poker, he was just too stupid. I'm also of the opinion that he's a net loser in poker.

I don't see any message boards up hating on Michael Jordan's 10 scoring titles, his 6 NBA Championships, or his 5 MVP awards. So why hate on Phil for his competitive attitude and his 9 bracelets. I mean he constantly puts his money in with the best hand. If anyone here had anything bad to say about Phil...chances are they already lost their money to him, or wouldn't stand a chance.

phil wins the heads up tourney this week....where are all the phil haters now? good job phil

phil is the best ever player so what if he whines so would u if someone called with rubbish and got lucky phil the greatest

I Can Tell You Right Now That Phil Laughs At You Haters On Here Because He Made It And You Didnt Bottom Line. He Doesnt Even Read This Shit

To those that think Phil is great, I ask only one thing. Where would Phil come out in the following equation? Tournament wins + cash game wins - tournament entry fees - tournament travel and lodging - state and federal taxes - cash game losses.

THis is the real Sammy the Brick and I gotta say that these losers posting as me is a compliment, you fucks want to be me.

does anyone know how to email phil?

i'll just ask one of you guys since no one will answer me. since i am only 16 and can only get in to some home games that are like 5$ buy ins, how do i find the games that can win me some real money. i want to move my game to the next level and i cant really do that if no casino or big money home games will let me play and my friends are tired of me beating them. what should i do?

youre 16...stick to 5 dollar games, if you even think about getting into bigger games youll lose the shirt off youre back

Not me check ip's.Its sammy the brick.Who reckons he plays part time and is rated the best college player by cardplayer...all lies!

Does anyone know Phil's email??

His brother is a much nicer guy --Dave Hellmuth. A lawyer in Minneapolis ---Hellmuth & Johnson or hjlawfirm.com

who the hell cares about his brother.. go take that shit somewhere else!!

phil hellmuth can read souls, need i say more

I love Phil's yoga techniques - he's also extremely sexy and warty. I agree with maverick above. Genius.

Anyone's game before the flop

I fucking depsise him. Sad bastards staying on cash tables makin money. Boring as fuck. And fuck you Clebbes. Toss pots. P.S. It's my birthday next month at leigh cricket ground

all you people saying this guy is overrated. How is that possible when only brunson and chan have matched him in terms of WSOP bracelets. When you people have won as much as he has THEN you can criticise him, and yes he does whine but every great winner whines either publicly or privately.

Everyone knows he is the best poker player in the world, hes young and has won as many gold bracelets as doyle, who can beat that?!?!

Phil is a jerk. On of these days if he doesn't watch his mouth he may find his teeth laying on the table next to his chips.....
