If someone asked me had I looked, and I had, I wouldn't have a problem saying I didn't. Play your own ****ing hand and stop talking to me trying to gain some information. If you make a bad decision because of something I said, something that you asked, bad luck.
I think G's done nothing wrong. Phil is like "etiquette, etiquette, sort of a law..".. As he said, it is poker. Maybe it is not the best of the moves, but lying is a prat of poker, isn't it?
It was not cool when they stood up though. Way over the line..
It's only an angle because Helmuth allowed it to be an angle. Like blaming someone for robbing you after handing them a bat/gun. After Helmuth provided Tony G with the chance/opening to do what he did it was Tony G's choice to do what he did (duh). So basically Helmuth is dumb for believing anything coming out of his mouth and with nobody else paying attention he believed what he wanted to believe because he wanted to call. Tony G doesn't hide who he is, if he was a sneaky bastard who always acts truthful and is the nicest guy at the table you'd hear everyone bitching but really the guy has a huge mouth and straight up says whatever he wants... not a credible source of info. I think on this one the error lies on Helmuth for letting himself believe. But this doesn't mean it wasn't a devious move on Tony G's part.

Reason: Just because.
lol phils a fool, whether or not tony looked or not shouldnt matter he had AJ and it was a standard call if you look at the betting and knowing tony plays wild... folding would be a mistake
