a guy who has won nothing in the nl world needs to slow down with his statements, helmuth has 10 nl bracelets, antonius makes wpt final tables and kills cash games makes no stupid comments like that, rugby none of the above yet makes stupid comments

Jeff Madsen and Phil Hellmuth are great NL tournament players but there is a reason why they do not sit down to play 300/600 nl every morning. Can you figure out why?

Re: sbrugby
 

yeah cause there skills dont translate to a internet setting

and no i have not lost to him i just am amazed how a guy who gets owned by ivey on a daily basis but beats badp layers makes that comment

because they like to make easy money? also probably because they are dogs in that game.

Re: sbrugby
 

Who is sbrugby? Is he new to the scene?

Seems like every week there's a new hotshot trying to make a name for himself in HSNL. They never last.

Re: sbrugby
 

Sbrugby doesn't get destroyed by Ivey.

Re: sbrugby
 

i beleive that anyone who plays 300-600 nl everyday thinks that they are the best nl players in the world

so theyre the best NL players in the world but theyre dogs in the 300/600 NL games on FT?

There are fundamental differences between tournies and cash. I think Phil Hellmuth is the greatest nlh tournie player in the world. But the greatness of poker players is measured on the amount of cash they win. Jeff Madsen is a [censored] great nlh and omaha player but just cos he won 2 bracelets does not make him better than aba, and if you think any differently you should go read the 2p2 archives

Re: sbrugby
 

i think the only absolute truth one can make in this thread is that jeff madsen is all around funnier than aba. and perhaps doesn't sound as woody allenish on internet videos.
and phil hellmuth is an arrogant a-hole.

Re: sbrugby
 

FWIW I agree with you guarang. People here aren't going to agree with you as sbrugby is a poster here. But, yes, he's certainly not the best in the world and despite what others may think Phil Hellmuth/Madsen are much more well known in the poker community. That said sbrugby is a VERY good player (I envy his huge stacks on Full Tilt's tables).

Re: sbrugby
 

Im certain that aba would love to play Helmuth and Madsen HU for the rest of his life.

aba can sit for hours at a 300/600HU table and not get action, if Hellmuth or Madsen sat they would get action instantly and there would be a waitlist pretty deep

Re: sbrugby
 

If he's not the best, he's certainly in the top 5. Honestly I think it takes that kind of mindset to play that high successfully, and even to make it that high to begin with. Pretty sure almost all the 300/600 regs believe themselves to be the best in some shape or form. It's not necessarily a bad thing, even if it can come off as arrogant to outsiders.

well known by people who watch TV? according to this argument Mike Matusow is better than aba too.

Re: sbrugby
 

why am i even in this thread, i should have left after reading the starting post... obviously the thread maker is aba in disguise..

Re: sbrugby
 

Aba just won a 300k pot with Q high. I would like to see Madsen or Helmuth do that.
