    Phil Helmuth got punked

    Did anyone watch poker after dark the last two weeks?

    If not , you missed out and If you like heavy stakes, you should try to catch it in the replays. $100,000 coin flips, prop betting, $200,000 pots. It was some of the best televised gambling ive seen. There was about $2,500,000 on the table. Absolute madness. Rich compulsive gamblers at their best. Phil Ivey probably lost close to a million when it was all done.

    But the best part was Phil Helmuth getting run over by everyone and in the end being called the worst poker player there. He clearly showed how bad and overrated he is. I couldn't stop laughing.

    Helmuth is a very solid tournament player but a very weak cash game player.

    i woulndt call him overrated or bad in any way. I just wouldnt call him a favorite at a cash game table. In a tournament, nobody is better than him. His 11 bracelets prove that

    he is the holdem tournament king, but cash games is another story. On high stakes, even the new guys at the table were punking him with his small riv bets.

    Meh, anyone night doesn't prove a player is good or bad... it's one night of cards. Everyone hits a streak of bad reads or crappy cards. I not a fan of Phil's, but to say he's overrated when he has 11 bracelets if pretty dumb. The guy is just an annoying tool.

    Phil is no dummy..... don't you think 9/10 of his antics are just marketing......
    There are 100 players very similar in skill to Phil but how many names do you know or talk about?
