blueodum 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 The "gentlemanly" Phil Hellmuth has produced another memorable exit interview at the Monte Carlo Millions:"I ALWAYS get my chips in when I'm ahead. I come all the way to Monte Carlo & some idiot takes me on with K-6 - it's what I've come to expect, people call just to eliminate me. I'm the best player here, & these idiots can't play the game. I've had to battle against these idiots all my life..." - I ALWAYS get my chips in when I'm ahead. -For example, when Hellmuth put his chips in with A-Q while Mr. Corkins called with A-A at the ToC. - I come all the way to Monte Carlo & some idiot takes me on with K-6 - it's what I've come to expect, people call just to eliminate me. -Of course, if you're short stacked, Phil, why wouldn't someone take a shot at eliminating you if the price is right?I'm the best player here ... ... except for about 50 other players the organisers invited. I finished Phil's sentence for him - he must have forgotten to while caught up in the moment.I've had to battle against these idiots all my life...That's right folks - the idiots in poker have cost Phil Hellmuth a lot of grief over the years. I'm sure he'd prefer it if there were no idiots in poker - who needs all that dead money anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

Petoria 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I cant believe my thread about Phil dominating this tourney got locked down, what a jopke. There was no flaming going on in my thread. There are so many other threads that are more useless than mine. This has gone too far KDawg. What guidelines do you have when deciding to lock a thread? Just personal judgment? Unbelievable. Seriously, quit wasting your time by locking worthwhile threads.This is the first time you actually got me upset. Unbelievable. Link to post Share on other sites

Azwethinkweiz 0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 That's great. He's been coming up short alot lately in the big ones, so I'm sure this is a booster as well as a fire that officially just got lit under his ass.I'm scared to see the run this could potentially start.
