It's hard to hear what he says through all the BEEPS over his curse words.

I enjoyed watching him.

I've run into him two times:

1) Was playing 2/5 NL during the WSOP around 3 AM. There was an annoying drunk guy to my left berating people every other hand. I would take jabs at him every once in a while but the game was too good for me to quit.

Anyways, at one point he goes on a long, semi-explicit tirade about how bad I am after I check raise him allin and show him a bluff. Out of nowhere, I feel a hand on my shoulder and a voice speak up, saying "Anything you want to say to my mate here you're going to have to say to me."

Obviously it was Devilfish, holding a glass of scotch in the other hand and looking pretty sloshed. The guy quickly STFUs and doesn't say a peep the rest of the night. Devilfish asks me "How are you, mate?" and I just respond very cordially. I wasn't sure if he thought he knew me or thought that I was just English or something.

2) The other time I ran into him was at the Bellagio salon during the main event this year (he had busted out). I had just finished getting my hair cut and Devilfish was waiting about 6 feet from my chair since he had an appointment with my barber there. He was wearing a robe and looking very suave. He introduces himself to me and compliments me on the style, and I say thanks, and pretend like I don't play much poker but that I know him from TV, etc.

He introduces himself as David, and I tell him that's my name as well. As I'm leaving he says "If you see me again mate let's have a drink at the bar." I laugh and say OK. Anyways the guy might come across as a douche on TV but my experiences with him have been hilarious.

Love the piano, singing, dancing, girl stories.
after reading these posts, devilfish rules!

i liked him during the monaco millions tourney or whatever...
didn't see the ending, but at the start, he got big stacked
and was bullying the table quite successfully. the others
included Chris Fergusan, Phil Hellmuth, John Juwanda,
Mike Matusow, Phil Ivey and Gus Hansen, I believe...

but the hellmuth tirade and the PLO final table...
inexcusable behavior.

What happened to the WSOP penalty for dropping F-bombs?

[SmokeyRidesAgain]

I was more embarassed at the commentators than devilfish on that wsop plo final table. Norman Chad is an utter tool I hope he gets hit by a bus.

[gemininini]

He can come across as incredibly arrogant and offensive but it really is all tongue in cheek.
It's a very english, in particular northern english, sense of humour which isn't especially amusing for anyone else other than the person performing. Which is exactly what 95% of Ulliott's persona is; a performance.
I think he's pretty cool myself.

He used to annoy me, but the more I see him, the more he grows on me. I think he was hilarious in the Omaha broadcast..FWIW
