it doesnt start for an hour. Also i just read hellmuth's blog... the guy's memory is worse than mine apparently. He has on multiple occasions said how terrible i play, and said he'd show me how to play heads up live... everytime i obviously say yes (like i did on nbc), and he tries to spin it into me being an ass so he can look better and still not play. I don't have much of a problem with phil off-camera, but on camera i really dislike him as he will say anything to get a few minutes extra air time or look better.
I guess it has made him millions though in sponsorship deals and stuff, but I feel like his results are strong enough that he would still have a very good deal if he acted like someone old enough to drive himself to school. I have been sucked out on for far larger amounts of equity than hellmuth was, and i don't usually whine about it and challenge people to heads up... but if I did, I wouldn't try to backout of the challenge when it was accepted.
edit: and if he wants i'd agree to keep the results private- so that my incentive for playing him isn't to say 'i beat phil hellmuth' if i win, its just because i think its a very +ev spot and i like money.
