ivey limps button with 8s4s, howard raises with Kd8d. Flop comes 4d6d9h or something, ivey checks, howard bets, ivey checkraises for half his stack, howard pushes allin, ivey thinks for over 5 minutes then calls.

The whole time I watched it i was saying "CALL CALL" I don't care if he was like a 53% favourite it was still a sick call

I think he CR for 1/3rd of his stack.

yea ivey checked, howard bet 5500, Ivey raised to 15500 and took forever but called howards all in.

at the end of helmuths huge rant he says in the background "we're gonna stop and start it again", do you think he was talking about staging acting like a douche? Sounds scripted

[Proline Fiend]

Howard: "So the real question is who is going to beat my patriotes this year"

god its like hes physic.

Hellmuth's exit interview was one of the funniest things on TV this year. Gus' reaction in the background was classic.

No one is that good of an actor. Helmuth is simply the biggest tool who has ever lived. Period.

come on guys give Hellmuth a break. We may never understand his genius, but it is evident he his held in the highest esteem by his peers...

[BINGOBANGOFTP]

omg the picture above

and the two most interesting parts IMO:

Phil is so sick for the call in the final hand.
I think Howard and Hellmuth might really hate each other

[Dima2000123]

Yeah, by Wednesday, it looked like Howard and Hellmuth weren't just taking playful jabs at each other, it seemed like a full-on war of words was in progress.
