Does anyone know who it was that pulled their jacket up over there head when someone was trying to get a read on them? I thouhgt it was Helmuth when Lederer was trying to read him. My holdem buddies say I'm wrong. I got a hun bet on this. Please help.

I am almost positive that it was not Hellmuth. In fact, I would bet a $100 that it was not.

If I remember correctly, it was someone who got busted out reasonably soon after that, not Moneymaker. I could be wrong and it was Moneymaker, but I think it was a relative no-name player. (You know, like Moneymaker was until 3 days later.)

It was f'n hilarious though.

yes, it was Kenna James. He is was an actor from Anaheim. Howard was trying to get a read on him, so he pulled his jacket up over his head. I can tell you there cards and everything if you want when I get home to night and check my records.

I saw this one day at lunch at a local bar/resturant and they had it on, and when I glanced up I thought it was Hellmuth too until he took the jacket down. Looked pretty similar at first.

It was Kenna James trying not to let Howard Leterer get a read on him.....Kenna is a pro as well, he has been a pro from 3+ years....
Phil Hellmuth would never hide from anyone....smarten up..

Actually, I remember this happening at least three times. According to the responses though it appears that one (and only one) of them was televised? I didn't see any of the telecasts - is this right?

yes, it only happened once during the televised segments, but I am pretty sure he did it a total of 4 times.
