I really thought that Phil justs hams it up for the camera, but when I was at his non tv table in a tournament he was horrible to play with. He made a big deal about the most boring hands, like I raised early position with AK he calls on the button. I bet on a rags flop and he goes on and on about how terrible the play is and people get lucky on the flop and blah blah. He gave like a 3 minute speech before folding for a pot that was like 12 big blinds and less then 10% of our stacks.

I really thought that the whole poker brat thing was pure marketing but now I am not so sure. I also think I pissed him off because I pretended to not know who he was. I asked him what he did for a living just to [censored] with him, it was pretty obvious to everybody at the table that I was joking but he still went on for a few minutes about how great he was just in case I was serious..
