I thought it was really funny because Dannennman said "Nobody should by your books or CDs." CD's???? We know he meant DVD's, but still.

I really don't like how Hellmuth thinks he's above normal poker rules, like stacking chips, or showing down cards if asked. He's an elite poker player, but to expect people to bend the rules for you is wrong.

I caught most of this, and thought it was very entertaining. Great players, good poker, and good tv.

And yeah, the chat was pretty good too.

Once again, the more I watch Hellmuth, the less I respect him. He's a great player - don't get me wrong - but he acts like a spoiler brat. I know part of that is his schtick, but you can tell that most of it is just who he is.

Gotta say you were right and I was wrong TP, the more I watch Mike the Mouth, the more I'm starting to like him. Loved when he pushed all-in w/rags against Hellmuth's PFR w/A8, priceless... you could practically see the steam coming out of Phil's ears after that hand. Great TV.

Yeah, that was good, but I still like Hellmuth.

Matusow's verbal jabs would've have a lot more behind them if he could get them out with out stammering and stuttering. It seems like I've seen him marblemouth it a few times when trying to be coy.

He sounds like a GED education.

Yeah, he'd definitely benefit from a few days at Camp Shabi.

Danneman is worse than Mat. or Hell and I'll tell you why
Anyone who has to call their friend on a cell phone to tell them he just bluffed Howard Ledener out of a pot has no life. At least Hell and Mat talk smack to your face man to man instead of being a scumbag who got caught talking smack by a TV camera behind everyones back.

Put yourself in his shoes. His friend was getting half of his winnings, this was his first big poker experience and he was having the time of his life. When I first saw that, I was annoyed too, but then I thought about it some more and realized where he was coming from.

I'm not saying he's the best player in the world, but I do think he's a good guy, and I have no problem with him whatsoever.
