Best televised table-talk dis

looking at Tony G on video, he strikes me as a horribly insecure person. overcompensates for it all by putting on a show at the poker table.

anybody have a video of him getting his just desserts?

If you want a video of him getting just desserts, I'd imagine it would involve him at the men's room with a pair of tweezers trying to find it.

I think the award should go to something funny and not something mean.

Watching Tony G and Phil Hellmuth just makes my stomach turn and root for their opponents to come over the table and smash them.

I would much rather watch the good natured ribbing of Daniel Negreanu or Mike Matasow.

How about in HSP when Negreanu makes a comment to Matusow that you need dough to play poker? That shut the Mouth right up.

My favorite is from the 2004 TOC where Lederer bets on the river, Hellmuth mutters for awhile and finally folds.

Hellmuth then says something about seeing the hand on the ESPN broadcast.

Lederer says "Don't worry Phil, they'll definitely show that hand," insinuating that he had just pulled off a huge bluff (he wasn't bluffing).

So subtle yet still so effective.

Agreed. Here's one from Mike against Sheiky:

"You know what I have that you don't have?"

"What's that Mikey?"

"All of your chips."

my favorite... I think it was kiddo pham on the WPT...

after pulling a big bluff.. traces out the shape of a heart on his opponent's chest and says softly with a look of disdain "no heart"

[Peter McDermott]

Remember that Tony G is Lithuanian, and Perry is a Russian. I got the impression that Tony was playing out some deep tribal resentment over being raised in a country that was occupied by the Russians.

He's usually much more gracious than either Hellmuth or Matusow IMO.

When Hellmuth sat down at HSP, Daniel N. literally rubbed his hands together and said something like "Just when I thought I'd stay stuck".

He then proceded to pick Hellmuth clean.

After finding this one I'd have to rate it the best. Trash(talk) with class.
