Really? Come on? He's so pretentious. At least Matusow is joking when he talks about being so much better than everybody else. He knows as well as everybody else just how fucked up he is.
And if ya'll aren't reading the Cardplayer updates, you should be. It's hilarious, and this is gonna make for great tv. P.S. How can anybody pull for Phil when he shouldn't have ever been there? |

Hard as it is to admit, I'm rooting for the Mouth. He's a much better poker player than people give him credit for...

Great updates... I just glanced through them. I can't wait to see this on tv.
Of the quotes, this one was my favorite: "Hellmuth is asked by the tournament director to stack his chips, as they are spread out over a large area in front of him. Hellmuth lightly challenges him, and it's not long before he and Matusow are back into it. Eventually, even Steve Dannenmann jumps into things, saying that as a professional poker player, he isn't acting very professionally. They exchange a few more words, and Dannenmann caps it off by saying, "Nobody should buy your books or CDs, because you're a punk." Phil is taking a lot of abuse today, but he seems to be taking it very well. Of course, some would say he's had a lot of practice." But I liked this one a lot too: "Tournament Director Jimmy Sommerfeld asks the audience to give a round of applause to ESPN and SoBe's new energy drink (Adrenaline Rush) for sponsoring this event. Mike Matusow then asks the crowd to give a round of applause to Harrah's for inviting Phil Hellmuth to show up and take all of their money. The crowd applauds, but it's likely that only a dozen or so really get the joke." Actually, this is pretty damn good stuff too. I've found a whole new respect for Steve Dannerman in these past couple of weeks: "In between hands, Dannenmann gives Matusow a wrapped gift. Matusow asks, "Is it the four million you stole from me this summer?" (Referring to the World Series final table.) It's a small globe, similar to the one that Dannenmann uses as a card protector. He explains that he and Matusow were sitting next to each other on day one, and Matusow kept singing, "He's got the whole world in his hands," referring to the globe. Phil Hellmuth then takes a moment to tell the TV cameras, "Merry Christmas," because this is scheduled to air on Christmas Eve. The crowd lets out a condescending "Awwwww." Dannenmann has also given Hellmuth a gift, which he opens, ignoring the fact that it could be dangerous. The box is opened, and he pulls out a stuffed donkey. The crowd has a great laugh, but Phil takes it in good spirits. The action is coming fast and furious ... and we've only had four hands so far." |
