This Hellmuth hand should be good TV

[Tornado69]

Phil Hellmuth raises to $75,000 preflop. Eugene Todd reraises to $220,000 total. Hellmuth asks Todd, "Are you trying to donk off your stack with ace jack?". Hellmuth proceeds to fold and shows A-Q. Todd just grins as he flips over A-J. Hellmuth, of course, jumps up from the table in disbelief.

He's gonna give a good rant about this one I bet it's only 4 handed lol.

This event ($5,000 No-Limit Hold'em) wasn't on ESPN's original schedule, but once they found out Phil Hellmuth would be going for his record-tying tenth bracelet against Vinnie Vinh, Marcel Luske, and Isabelle Mercier, they made things happen.

It's not a full crew, but a skeleton crew. But if history happens, you'll be able to see it on ESPN. And George, the guy who operates the hole cams, was also present. So we should get complete coverage as well.

Just like last year certain events they say their gonna cover they might not if the final table isn't any named players and vice versa.

FWIW, the Sirius radio coverage is consistently reiterating that ESPN isn't present; so I suspect one of two things is happening:

1) Sirius doesn't recognize ESPN's 'skeleton' crew and therefore is wrong in claiming ESPN isn't there
2) Whatever organization is reporting the quoted above is wrong.

i'm listening on sirius and they say no ones filming it

maybe the "skeleton" crew is there to cover if hellmuth gets heads up but i don't think we'll see this on TV

[Whitewash]

I think all we're gonna see is it stuffed in another episode ala Johnny Chan's 10th.

ESPN screws up again. How can they not choose a $5,000 NL Hold Em event as one to televise? Its most likely going to have the most "name" players of any NLHE final table.
