That's the minimum, but it doesn't keep players from buying in for much more.

Rob looked visibly annoyed at Hellmuth refusing to straddle. He has no one to blame but himself for inviting this self absored ****.

I wish someone else at the table would chastise Hellmuth for being a poor playing nit besides Rob. I don't understand why Koon or Trickett don't give him a tougher time verbally. I'm sure the recs would love it.

I like Rob Yong a lot but reaching in and stacking the pot when Gang jammed is outta line.

inviting hellmuth to these games is just a joke. rob must think its good television, because it seems like thats what he wants. but at this point, hellmuth is a joke and bore to watch. his poker brat act is old, and he nits it up. rather watch 100 other "wizards"

But yet you all keep talking about him - what's that all about?

I'd love to watch this, but sadly I cancelled PokerGo after a 10 month drought of interesting content...
Sucks when they finally hit the 1-outter on you and this is on

When Hellmuth was on LATB dude was SUPER nitty. Like for someone who claims to have friends in high places he was being frugal.

I miss the pace of play and action from yesterday. Besides a couple hands today is much more boring and Hellmuth is insufferably annoying.

Trickett pots the turn for 30K with AA and Hellmuth check-jams for 293K with the nut straight. Incredible.

I subscribe to Pokergo for the entertainment of watching poker. Sometimes its the entertainment of GTO wizzards battling it out, sometimes it the entertainment of watching a non GTO battle for large amounts of money. Your proposal is extremely stupid.

His play is horrific, he is clearly playing way outside of his bankroll and is terrified. A large percentage of 1/2 grinders play far better than Hellmuth. What he brings to the show is drama and cringe factor that provides a story line. How Hellmuth could possibly be such a prominent face in Poker is amazing. The guy is clearly clueless.

if you like him or not, he's still the top guy (next to dnegs), in terms of fame (recognizability) outside the poker community.

Isn't Roble staking JRB? So Roble should have a pretty big piece of himself.
