"Hates" seems like a strong word. Didn't he only have a passing comment about thinking he'd not be there at the end because he isn't a folder?

In the preview tonight Hellmuth said he thought Blumstein was going to blow his stack making a lot of bad calls. There was some other dig.

But yeah obviously I don't think Hellmuth has a deep hatred for Blumstein. Sometimes the word 'hate' is used non-literally for effect.

Hellmuth doesn't like anyone who makes a lot of hero folds and doesn't play super nit. He was quite sure Piccoli's TT call was a fold. Polk got on him. Weirdly each of them seemed to assume that Ruane has to be shoving 77 for it to be good, meaning they think AA-QQ is in Ruane's shove range.

I realize that. I just didn't hear any digs at Blum from Phil. My apologies.

Can you watch the ESPN coverage tomorrow on pokergo, or do you have to have ESPN/watchespn?

What gets weird too is if you DVR it and it runs long you miss a bunch. So you have to record the stuff after. But what worries me is ESPN might decide to bounce over to ESPN2 on Fri or Sat if it runs long.

no sympathy towards ruane at least on my part

the guy made incredible back to back runs yet looked so miserable. Not to mention his sly comments towards Hesp on one of the previous days.

Unlike previous years ESPN did not assign large, many-hour blocks for these final table nights, but apparently they will still broadcast as long as it takes to narrow to 6, to 3, to 1 (preempting the late-night filler).

I still wouldn't be surprised if they bounce over to ESPN2 at some point.

Ruane was disgusting to watch, the only time he laughed he was laughing at the fish not with the fish, made me cringe, the other 99% of the time he had his miserable pouty face on....so disgusting PUKE PUKE PUKE. Please dont ever play on TV again Ruane, your a miserable human being, your terrible for the game.

If 3 people bust quickly, will the broadcast end and players get an early night? I'm assuming they have to do this due to the TV slots already allotted
