This is one of my favorite hands and I'm trying to find it again. From what I remember, he was playing against Vicky Coren...had 88, then bet the flop in the dark and the other two 8's came off. I think he then visibly gulped and Coren folded to the dark bet.

Any help locating it?

Sounds like one of the Premier League tables, if that helps any.

It is

lol must...see...this....hand!

Whats the point in betting the flop without seeing it?

lol I love how the commentators cry out in laughter after seeing phil's face

I didn't think my opinion of Hellmuth could go any lower but it just did. lol.

Boring.

why? because he got lucky?

Because he may be the only person alive who could find a way to screw up flopped quads.

because he bet in the dark and got lucky and flopped quads while she didn't hit anything.


that's like saying someone that gets folded into while holding As in the big blind played badly.


of course betting in the dark is an advanced poker theory you interweb players would never understand

Phil was booed roundly at the final table telecast on ESPN last Tuesday.

We know he enjoys playing up to his bad boy image.

We know that away from the table, most players that play against him and have a friendship with him, generally consider him a geniune fine fellow.

His act is pretty old and tired really. I hope the ground swell f those who don't know him continue to dislike him. Entertaining yes.

I hope he regrets acting this way years down the road.

I feel that his poker record is tremendous and great.

I do not feel that he is one of the greatest poker players in the world for the simple reason of his lack of professionalism.

As it is starting to turn out, the young internet pro type of player is becoming the role model, as they are so numb to the amount of hands the play and the money in tournaments is becoming somewhat insignificant to them because they have won a lot of money already, that they shrug off beats and just move on.

It's the act like you've been there before attitude that is more impressive.

On those Premier League episodes with Devilfish and Tony G blaming the dealer for putting up the beats. It lowers them that they would consider or suggest that the game isn't random.

I know that they understand the cards are truly random in the long run, but until they quit that attitude, I would have to say that they are naive in their thinking.

thank

you

for

that

post

please

no

more

.

Thanks!

I love how you can hear Vicky in the background saying "You know I missed that flop completely" while he's staring at it also.

No wonder he always checks dark now!

Because he bet in the dark and got unlucky is more like it. Who bets in the dark? Hellmuth does and he flops quads and doesn't get any money.

the two commentators takin' the piss out of PH is fockin' hilarious. the hand itself is pretty boring.

He was booed by G2CU's friends/cheering section fwiw, so thats what you were hearing there

LOOOOOL Hellmuth got unlucky? You should watch the entire poker premier league and then tell me if phil got unlucky. I never seen so many suckouts in my life.

Why would I waste my time on another POS TV show? I barely watch poker on TV anymore as it is because it's so relentlessly dull and repetitive. I only commented on this because OP posted the clip. If you can't figure out what I mean by unlucky then you are an obvious Hellmuth fanboy.
