It's amazing to me how badly Helmuth has been playing on PAD. This week he's been calling preflop with horrible starting hands that even Gus Hansen might find questionable. I've never seen him play this loose. Wonder why.

I don't like Hellmuth really (not that I know him anyway) but his play has surprized me also. I mean if he decided he was going to play the hands he loses to why would he do so on a network show? Why not do so in a small tounament with little if an exposure instead?
