I think if I was ever fortunate enough to be in a position like Hellmuth in the future. I would stick to the area of my game where I felt strongest. For him this is obviously tournaments. Why venture into another mans territory when you aren't equipped to deal with the dangers that rests there

because he probably earns more from the publicity than he loses in the game.

It must be more painful for someone in his financial position to get beaten like he has than lose money. His ego is fueled by his tournaments success, I would stick with what I knew. I understand what you mean about the publicity though. Good point.

He wants to be bigger, and as well known as possible. He loves the TV time and playing on high stakes is another chance to get some. Sometimes I think he exagerates his image as the "poker brat" and the strops he has whilst other times I think he's actually genuinely losing it!

Yea I guess you are right mate. It is hard to imagine for me, I play poker for me and not to impress others. I guess it shows the differences between my level at the scum limits and his at the big limits

Series 1 is starting up again on Challenge (Sky 121) I think it was episode 1 on again tonight (the one with Dr. Nasseri's 5-5 and Ted Forrest's 2-2 and the 2-4-5 flop)... can anyone confirm that was the first episode of series 1?  Anyway, it's on every day, just after midnight (and then again on Challenge +1 of course  ) |

That Dr Nasseri - He might as well shouted out "I've got Aces!!!!" when he got them.
Jesus, playing at that level, you would think he could show some restraint in his body language!!
