"even the best players in the world try to give me their chips."

"this guy probably can't even spell poker."

btw - i'm a phil fan, as i think anyone who follows the circuit even a little knows that he plays his image up for a numerous amount of reasons. away from the table (and more importantly the cameras) he's not like that. after losing his heads up battle for his 10th bracelet a couple weeks ago - he was nothing but gracious.

that said - here's hoping he gets it tonight.

This is probably the most brilliant thing I've ever heard a poker player say, and I mean it. Hellmuth is such a genius, it goes beyond the greatest poker mind. He makes millions risk-free because he's a marketing god, while the rest of the clowns (i.e. chip reese, barry greenstein, rest of those silly poker players) have to actually work for a living, even if that work is playing poker.

Did you ever stop to think maybe they don't want to act like someone they are not for millions they don't even need?
