You need to back off. I just told everyone about it because it was entertaining to watch. Hellmuth saying this guy would be broke and cussing him out for winning hands and telling people to "fjuck off" Link to post Share on other sites
TS Clark 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I can't find the amazing Phil. My Ultimate Buddy program says he's logged on, but doesn't give a table. If he's still playing, I'd love to watch. Anyone have a table name and game? Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty266 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I've never seen Helmuth playing on UB when he wasn't getting owned, going on tilt, typing like he was drunk, etc., and I've seen him on there several times. I played with him on the $200 NL table one night. He was playing like a maniac trying to blow everyone out of every pot and having some success at it for awhile. I managed to double up on one of his $60 preflop raises. I reraised all-in with KK and he called with 3-5 off. After that someone else busted him and he got mad and left.The only thing I can figure is UB wants him to there once in a while to entertain the players, because he sure isn't playing to win.

missIdaho 1 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I can't find him anymore either. I think he stopped playing. Link to post Share on other sites
skipeddoda 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 he quit down 8k at 150-300 limit he Link to post Share on other sites
jeremy 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 I can't find him anymore either. I think he stopped playing.Yeah he quit after he lost his 2nd buy in at the limit table. Too bad it was fun to watch him cuss everyone out and call them his "meal tickets" lol Link to post Share on other sites
missIdaho 1 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 It was very entertaining Link to post Share on other sites
chester97 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 that spyder guy just got about 20K taken from him in the course of maybe 20 hands from juha at the 200/400 table. Link to post Share on other sites
TheDanimal 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I don't play on UB so I have never seen Phil play but its shocking to hear that he talks to people like that, isn't he like an ambassador for the site? All the pros on Full Tilt are great, when they lose they are very nice about it, even if its on a terrible beat. Phil probably gets the worst of it, im sure people get on just to see if they can set him off. Nobody really tries to talk junk to Lederer or Ivey on Full Tilt. Link to post Share on other sites

mark33f 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 #1. Phil gets paid to play on Ultimate Bet.#2. If he acts like an idiot and trash talks people come into the game. Therefore, their play is raked (at high stakes) and Ultimate Bet takes home a nice profit.Phil attracts players to the site and the game with his attitude. I bet he is encouraged to act that way...it only results in more profit and traffic! Link to post Share on other sites
Smasharoo 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Phil's a losing player on UB.That may be a marekting concept or whatever, but he is. Link to post Share on other sites
mark33f 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Phil's a losing player on UB.That may be a marekting concept or whatever, but he is.Yeah, I think a lot of the way he acts on the site has to do with marketing (IMO). Link to post Share on other sites
TheDanimal 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I'm not going to trash Phil for losing money on the internet because John Juanda (spelling?) was saying he was down like $25K playing on Full Tilt and so were some of the other pros that make up the Full Tilt Team. He said he thought it was because they just were not use to playing such small limits. I personally saw Ivey drop $10K in like 2 minutes, but im well aware that that is peanuts for him.And you guys are probably right about the motive for the way Phil acts when he plays on the internet, im sure UB wants Phil to be Phil.
