I don't think some of you are understanding. This is not my trip report. This is Dan Druff's table report, which talks about him confronting Hellmuth on the UB cheating scandal at his featured table.

I think I mention this in the last sentence of the first paragraph, something like "From Druff"

And then I put down Druff's report with these lil things " before his story and after his story, showing that it was a Druff quote/story.

Re: WSOP Dan Druff calls out Phil Hellmuth over UB cheating at tv table

Someone else should do this again and again, the poker media cannot keep ignoring it then. Dan Druff (Roflcopter at his name BTW) should have definately further pressed the issue in a non-aggressive way. How can the floor penalise you for doing this? Come on people stand up for the poker community, you never know one of the victims of this may ship you some moneys for doing so

Re: WSOP Dan Druff calls out Phil Hellmuth over UB cheating at tv table

Yes Phil is aligned with a company that 'cheated' many for alot of money. Does anyone think PH was the superuser?? I want justice as much as anyone but calling out PH, and not getting an epic meltdown should show you guys that PH is/has distanced himself from the scandal as much as he can without leaving UB. OP gave credit to PH for wanting to continue the discussion. So no praise for Hellmuth once again being attacked by 'some random guy' and not going "idiot from northern Europe"?? Of course not. That will never happen. I guess next time DN is at a TV table someone should jump his ass about how the vegan's are crushing midwest farmers, or yell at Guy L. becuase online money is dwindleing....
All Im saying is, whether the argument is justified or not, jumping PH at a TV table about his sponsor is not helping him calm down his ego trip.

Opening Q2s isn't that bad this deep, especially considering how bad everyone is

You arnt too clever but good TR

If you had not started with "your company stole money from me" (way too aggressive) and started by saying "Phil what is ur take on the UB thing?" and taken it from there with an educated convo it may have made it on tv...thx for almost nadda!

interesting read, although the last hand was butchered by you PF and terrible by PH on every postflop street.

Re: WSOP Dan Druff calls out Phil Hellmuth over UB cheating at tv table

How about asking Phil about how he gets shipped a pot while losing the hand? That would, I think, be a lot of fun in front of TV cameras.

Lee
Who definitely is sorry that this wasn't pushed more at the table, and would love to know why the floorperson stopped the talk. WSOP covering up for UB/Absolute? I certainly hope not!

That was def coming up according to Druff over on his site, but small stack he couldn't afford a penalty (still weird that they could penalize you for talking about UB cheating)

They could penalize you for being a disruption to the table. Usually there is a catch all clause in the rules that covers their butts too. I know if I was at that table, I would ask for a floorman to shut them both up because I don't want to hear it.
