What Would You Do?


Recommended Posts

Last night, live 3/6...it all started by talking about online poker with the guy next to me...specifically UB.So then this old guy starts talking about how he knows Phil Helmuth and used to play with him back when Phil lived in Madison (I'm from Wisconsin). Phil used to play in his game in the late 80s before he won the WSOP. He said that he talked to him earlier tonight, and still sees him a couple times a year.Now this guy seems to have a screw loose and I'm not buying it so I ask him to show me. He said his phone was in the car. Liar, I thought. Anyway about an hour later he's been gone for like 30 min and comes back with his phone (and probably a bit higher) and starts showing me pictures of when Phil visited his house this past Xmas. He then showed me Phil's number in the phone, under "Poker Brat". I then asked him if I could call Phil. He said "no". I said "please". He said, it's getting late. That's when I stopped because I remembered Phil does have kids and all that and it would probably make this old guy a bad friend to let some half-drunk dumbass like me playing 3-6 talk to him. So I said "sorry" and that I understood he was busy and left it at that.So here is the question I pose:If you had a minute to talk to Phil Helmuth while playing 3-6, what would you say/ask? To make it more fun, pretend that the old guy isn't listening and that Phil wouldn't hang up on you no matter what you said.

"Hey Phil, is that really you? Wow, you're really rich, thanks for your time, you son-of-a-*****!"*Then I would proceed to nail a backdoor flush, gotta love 3/6.*

...if your son was at home,cryin' all alone on the bedroom floorcuz he's hungry, and the only way to feed him is to sleep with a man for a little bit of money and his daddy's gone,somewhere smokin' rock now,in and out of lock down,I ain't got a job now,so for you this is just a good time but for me this is what I call life, mmm...

3/6 limit sucks...almost like playing blackjack
Not where I play. The people are just good enough to be predictable, but not good enough to vary their play.I love how people assume that just because they take this game much more seriously, or play higher stakes, then everyone who plays below them is automatically worse. What's wrong with going to a B & M a couple times a week and taking a rack or two off the table?And besides, I almost got to talk to PH.

Hey... I was playing at Poto(I'm from Wisconsin also) and I was playing with this elderly lady.. she started going off about how she used to give Hellmuth a ride to and from the Casino before he had a car.. then she proceeded to go on and say that he was the winningst player in the world .. I then asked her if she meant cash games as well and she said he is really good at cash games... which obviously isnt true.. she seemed like she knew what she was talkign about but she kept boasting his cash game skills... I probably came off as an arrogant prick but oh well... thats poker.. NH
