Default Quotes from the 2005 WSOP ME Final Table

In honour of last years entertaining Cardplayer audio coverage of the final table, here is a re-post of the best quotes. Last year the broadcast team was led by a (often unintentionally) hilarious Phil Hellmuth, and was joined by players like Greg Raymer, Daniel Negreanu, David Williams, Erick Lindgren, Layne Flack, Jennifer Harman, and Joe Cassidy to name a few. Hopefully the coverage this year can be as good or better.

---

Raymer (discussing strategy after taking a bad beat): "When I take a hit like that, I pretend I came to the table with 2 million and just doubled up to 4 million, to put myself in a positive mindset"
Phil: "Is that going to be in your book, Greg?"
Greg: "It will be now, Phil"

---

Phil: "He came in on the back door of the Sante Fe railroad."

---

Phil: "There's this NBA player I've heard of once or twice from China, his name is Yao Ming"

---

Phil (to Greg): I told your wife I loved you the other day, what did she think about that?
Greg (after a pause): I'm sure she thought it was a fraternal love.

---

Daniel: I know this guy who says I'm going to keep letting you run me over, but one of these times I'm going to show you something. You know that guy Phil?
Phil: Yeah I've heard of him.

---

Juanda (after disagreeing about a hand with Negreanu): "And how many final tables you make this year, Danny?"

---

Phil & Jen: "Puggy! Puggy! Puggy! Play us a song"
Puggy: "Uh...how about I tell you about the logo in the side of my bus?"
Phil: "Ok!"

---

Phil (still unable to learn the player's names an hour or two in): "Ireland raised it...here comes Sweden."

---

Phil (pimping the Cardplayer feed): "Internet speed high access"

---

Phil: "I own technology companies!"

---

David Williams (to Phil): "You love the Dom"

---

Phil (trying to be funny in reference to Black): Like you guys would say, I fancy his play.
Roy Brindley: ...............

---

Phil (explaining his Sirius Black reference to Lindgren): "He's a fairly powerful wizard"

---

Erick: "You haven't lived until you've heard Phil rap"

---

Hellmuth: "Here's Phil Gordon, and his book - 'Shuffle up and....', hey Phil what's your book?"
Gordon: "That's Mike Sexton, mine's 'The Little Green Book of Hold 'em.'"

---

Phil (Phil in reference to Lazar's desruction, getting allin with K9 & QT on consecutive hands after the break): "Maybe he was drinking at dinner..."

---

Gordon (referring to Lazar's QT hand): "Who does he think he is, Robert Varkoni?"

---

Phil (talking about how the players are handling the pressure, then singing about it): "Dadadandandada PRESSURE! Dadadnandnadada PRESSURE! That's a Queen song, I think."

---

Phil: "Hey Andrew, did you spend 5 years in a Buddhist monastery?"
Black: "Yeah, 5 years."
Phil: "Cool."
Erick (to Phil): "That's like taking a bad beat worse than you"

---

Phil: "You go study Buddhism, you're going to get real calm, you know..."

---

Erick: (in reference to Dannenmann taking 5 minutes to fold to a bet on the flop only to show A-high): "He just showed that he can fold... nothing"

---

Phil (checking out the ladies in attendance while thinking his mic is off): "Did you see that... [censored].... ... she's you're girlfriend..."

---

Erick: "That Danennman is more extreme than I thought. He's got flames on his glasses"

---

Erick (referencing losing some wagers to Ivey earlier in the day): "Maybe I can get a loan... I got golf bets to pay."

---

Phil (to Miami John): "Miami, get your ass over here"

---

Phil (asking Tex what he had after he folded in a tough spot, while play is going on the following hand): "KINGS!?!?! Did you have kings? Uh, maybe we shouldn't interfere."

---

Phil: Pints o' Guinness! Pints o' Guinness!

---

Phil: (giggling) "He had the [censored] 4 high..."

---

Phil: "If they qualified on Full Tilt they get an extra 10 million. Of course Ultimate Bet is the best site out there."

---

Phil (to Jen's husband Marco): "Speak some Italian for everybody who talks Italian."

---

Jen Harman (after Black's big loss on the full boat hand): What do you think Andrew Black actually had there?
Helmuth: I dunno.. KQ? AK? Or maybe he just got jiggy with queens.

---

Jennifer: "Kanter has played for 9 years on the internet."

---

Erick: "Lights are not cold."

---

(they think they are off mic)

Jenn: "See, you're good at this, I suck."
Eric: "You don't suck."

---

Norman Chad: "I was in the dice game in the alley"

---

A very drunk Norman Chad trying to speak: "...inexschplicabby..."

---

Phil (to Ferguson) "Sunglasses on day or night, dancing around - right Jesus?"

---

Phil: (after some bad plays) "Ok ladies and gentlemen, we are finally seeing the inexperience show now.. this is amateur poker hour here at the wsop." "That's about as bad as it gets in poker right there" "stunningly bad"

---

Phil (about Kanter early in the night, proved correct when he lost a pot of 21 million with K5) "He's gonna get 10 million dollars in drawing dead."

---

Phil: "Moneymaker had his tours you know up and down the river."

---

Phil: "I like the red Starburst."
Jesus: "Your favorite's the red?"
Phil: "The orange are my favorite, but my kids like the red."

---

Phil (with a mouth full of Starbust) "It finally occured to me - I don't think Tex knows how to win this thing"

---

Layne: "And Cindy Violette enters the arena. She recieves a sitting ovation from tens of fans."

---

Layne (referring to Dannenmann): "Steve knows what he's doing"

---

Phil (after Hachem's Q7 vs 99 hand): Oi, oi, oi, oi, oi!

---

Layne: "Phil's gotta big heart..and a big head."
Phil: "I got a big everything, baby!"

---

Phil: "Look look you can tell he has a strong hand. Can you see it?"
Layne: "I see extreme fear... "

---

Flack: Look at that guy, name is Tex. From Texas, oh wait he's from Montana. Good players come from Montana... that's why I'm here. So much better than Wisconsin.

---

Layne (regarding a bar owner in Phil's Hometown of Madison, WI): "I played him for a tractor or two."

---

Phil (referring to still being on the air at 7 AM Pacific): "Well we probably have a bunch of drunk people that drank too much and are ready to pass out comin' in now. Welcome!"

Phil: "Nine"
Layne: "Oh nine, sorry"
Phil: "Don't rub it in"

---

Joe Cassidy (about Bruce Buffer): "He's not as good as that let's get ready to rumble guy."

---

Cassidy: "The audience doesn't know I was being sarcastic, but neither does Phil, so that's okay."

---

Phil (after Cassidy said he'd buy everyone in the room Champagne is he won the WSOP ME): "Bring me 200 bottles of Dom! We need Glasses! GLASSES! Baccarat Crystals!"

[censored] Layne Flack... awesome. No radio broadcast should be without a commentator who is drinking.
