Did you hear what Hellmuth said?, kgb, 31. Jul 2003 12:41
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
Last night watching a re-run of the WPT Antonio Estandiari was constantly going over the top of Phil Hellmuth and eventually put Hellmuth out of the game. As Hellmuth was leaving the table he walked over to Estandiari and it sounded like he said "why don't you show some class and shake my hand". I wish I would have taped the show and could go back and replay it.

don't know if he said that... sounds like something he'd say after getting knocked out... but also, it is good manners to shake hands with the person you just eliminated.

I think I remember seeing that. The guy was too busy raising his hands in the air to notice Helmuth's outstretched hand and just left him standing there looking like an idiot.

That's what he said. Antonio was doing that waving hands thing and Hellmuth said something close to, "Hey kid, why don't you show some class and shake my hand instead of that waving your arms ****" The last part was hard to hear, but the "why don't you show some class and shake my hand" was certain. I loved the irony.

I love it......Phil Hellmuth talking about having class. What a joke.

I did enjoy some of the comments that were made to him by Sam Grizzle, (another "gem of a guy" with such sweet southern hospitality)..........but I just couldn't help from laughing when he was just rubbin' it in. The two make a nice couple, they really do!

I caught the end of it and Phil said something just like that.

You outdraw him with a miracle card one night and end up in a dumpster the next.

If he were a mobster I think he'd be more like Fredo than Michael.

Or even worse, you end up sleeping with the fishes.

I thought it was pretty funny when Phil was interviewed after being knocked out and complained about getting bad luck. LOL. It looked to me like he just got outplayed. He was raising frequently with stuff like Q5 and Antonio repeatedly read him and played back with less than sterling cards himself. Phil kept raising with such weak holdings he just couldn't play against the reraise. He did it to himself with Antonio's skillful help. That's how I saw it anyway. Luck had little to do with it..
