Title: WSOP Main Event 2006

Anyone else watching?  Hellmuth is great fun to watch.  The other bit I just laughed at was the faces of the people at a table when they saw Phil Ivey sitting down with a massive stack of chips, they didn't look too confident :D

I loved the bit where Hellmuth lost to AA and the guy was telling him to "Get on with the game", and what  was the circling the table all about. That man does not lack self-confidence, to be fair I guess he had just won his 10th bracelet, so thats Phil 10 - Me 0.

I think that watching Hellmuth is cringe value, as a total easy going guy I feel that he is a total embarrassment. Those that can remember the last edition of Late Night Poker should remember his "all in" that he complained he did not state until overruled by Thomas Kremser

You cannot argue that he is very good at his trade and fantastic reading of other peoples hand values, but his personal characteristics are totally abhorrent

 The build up to the main event has been worth the wait, and the last event the $50,000 entry HORSE  event last table was brilliant.

Keep it coming
