Was just reading Helmuth's blog on Cardplayer. Every blog of his consists of bragging and name-dropping. Pretty amusing & nauseating at the same time. Here are some excerpts from his latest one...
"I mean, I had the poker records, the Fortune, the fame, the wonderful wife, the great kids, the 12 million "Milwaukee's Best" beer cans coming with my picture and likeness, the NYT bestselling book ("Play Poker like the Pros"), one million subscribers on my "Phil Hellmuth's Texas Hold'em" cell phone game, a column in 40 newspapers, a piece of 18 different companies, I was on television every day, and I had much, much more."
"I was living too much in my persona and not enough in myself. Yes, that tall guy dressed head to toe in black, with a black and gold PH hat on, with an IPOD that you see at the airport, and stare at, is the "Poker brat," but I am Phil Hellmuth as well. The "Poker brat" drinks Dom Perignon in the VIP section of the hottest clubs, hangs with the world's biggest celebs and beautiful women with security guards close by, still manages to stay loyal to his wife, and signs autographs and takes pictures with fans every single day."
"The "Poker brat" wins major poker tournaments, whines about amateurs that outdraw him through poor play, mouths off on ESPN, plays high stakes poker at UltimateBet.com where he whines too much in the chat box..." -

I didn't read it but Kanye West is the correct answer to your question. He said his biggest regret is never being able too see himself perform.

hangs with the world's biggest celebs and beautiful women with security guards close by, still manages to stay loyal to his wife

You know all these guys or just judging them from the couple of hours you supported them watching them on TV?

I would pay good money to watch that top five go at it royal rumble style..

This judgement is based on a few things, articles they have written, the way they present themselves on TV and in interviews, personal interactions I/or personal friends of mine have had w/ them at the tables or in public. I would say if u asked most people in the poker world these 5 people are not very well liked in general. Just an observation/ opinion.

i cant speak for everyone on the list but last time i was in vegas i met scotty and me and my buddy talk to him for id say a good 10 minutes and he was very nice, i cant say one bad thing about him....
my 2 cents -
I don't get what's wrong with that first quote, he's just naming a bunch of facts. The only value judgements are wonderful wife and great kids.

Gordon really isn't a douche, he's just a huge clown.

I've met them all and from my experiences... Phil Gordon is nice as long as you don't talk about poker, Tony G is one of the nicest people around, Nguyen was pretty generous and bought everyone a bunch of beers two World Series ago... Devilfish and Hellmuth are douches.

Tony G is very cool and definitely not a D-bag. Phil Gordon is nice also..
Ive played with Hellmuth twice, one holdem-one non holdem and he was a condescending farret both times..
scotty, cool sober
drunk- that guy you work with that nobody wants to hangout with when drunk. -
Errrr....Tony G is known as one of the nicer guys in poker...so your judgment has thus lost all credibility.

concrete opinion>>>>ignorant opinion

nobody is jocking anybody. did you ever consider that some of us may have actually spent time around these ppl which gives us a better grasp on how they are in the real world without cameras?
i didnt think there was anything wrong with disagreeing -
I can respect that, but did u ever consider that I may have spent time around them as well? And I may have good friends who have spent time around them? These are just my own experiences, if other people have had other experiences so be it. But dont just assume that i saw somebody on TV for 5 min and just automatically label them as a d-bag. Or do, whatever.
