You sir, are a moron.

Come sit at my table please.....

Busted means you took fill out of the game or took all the money he had at the table. And since this was a limit game and phil usually sits with around 5K because he's a hard ass. I don't think you really "busted" him. If you want to prove that you are a good player then we'll all see how you fair in the negreanu open on Tuesday. Until then, your claims of poker stardom are falling upon deaf ears.

The best thing to do really is to just ignore himHe certainly has to much time on his hands

[the_stein]

"then the turn flops a 7" That statement alone proves how retarded you are

[theACE]

haha i find this guy comical, i personally liked his "story" about his 2-7 offsuit beating pocket aces better.. its all a joke guys no need to take him seriously.

[buccs40]

why would phil be playing at 50 cent-$1 limit?

Looking beyond the fact that you know nothing about sentence structure (or poker for that matter), your stories are somewhat entertaining at first. Then I realize that you probably took 3 days to think of this story and I begin to feel sorry for you.

Lol, the sad truth of the matter.

Thats almost as cool as when Chris Moneymaker knocked on my door and wanted to play heads up for a million dollars and I beat him when i called his bluff with my royal flush.

i love how people seem to take this guy seriously. This guy cracks me up every time.

Whether it's true or not, this type of play has been discouraging me lately from online poker. I'm really enjoying the weekly $20 buy in home game I have, although I'm not sure if I'm improving my game by playing the same loose, fairly poor players time after time....but I digress.By the way, that story reminds me of the time I was playing Texas Dolly heads up and I went all in with A A and he called me with good old 10 2 offsuit and flopped 10 10 2...turn and river were blanks and he took all my money. Needless to say, I was upset, so as I got up from the table, I grabbed his crutch and beat him over the head with it....ahh, good times. I'm All In.

my thoughts exactly, I don't see why people get so worked up over this guy, it's all in good humour.

While the post is funny to begin with. The really funny part is how many of you took it seriously, and your comments.Have a sense of humor guys!

REPRESENT!! Negreanu Open, fool. woop woop!!Anyway, ben, the turn can't "flop" and you can't bluff. And XXEddie, it really is Phl Hellmuth. Annie Duke and some others play on there, too. I think Phil is the only one who wasts his time at the $.50/1 levels, though. You need to get your feet wet before you start argueing.

Im going to sincerely doubt that was really phil hellmuth. For one main reason....Why would Phil Hellmuth be playing at a .50/1 table, and unless he showed up with $4, you didnt bust him, you just played like a complete idiot and got lucky.

I have actually seen Phil play at those limits before, he does it every once in a while either for amusement or to give folks a chance to play with him who wouldn't normally get to. Howard Lederer and others do the same on Full Tilt.The last time I saw him playing at that limit, he was playing with only about $25. Someone from the observer lot started giving him crap about not really being Phil and how he was a poser and all that.Phil didn't respond to him. So the guy kept talking and kept talking, annoying all the other players at the table and some of the other observers.Still, Phil didn't say anything. When the guy continued, the money in front of Phil's name suddenly went from $25 to $25,025. That ended the conversation. I thought it was a pretty good way to handle it on his part.

[srharris22]

going from 25 to 25025 is probably the most subtle (if 25000 is subtle) and yet funniest things ihave ever heard. I give phil props for that move, so fits his personna.
