Default Phil Hellmuth & Tiffany Michelle on UB

If you play on Ultimate Bet, then you know Phil Hellmuth and Tiffany Michelle are sponsored players/ spokemen as well as some other pros. Occassionally they actually play on the site. When a pro is playing, the table is lite up in green and the player at the table has their name in green. I was watching yesterday and today and saw both Hellmuth and Michelle (http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/i...a8cfc8dd36.jpg) playing. [Mouse over the picture link, hold down Shift Key and click]. Here's two hand histories.

Tiffany was playing at a $2/4 NLHE 10 handed table. Here's a hand where she had AA and won a big pot. It was a gutsy call and re-raise with the gut shot str8 draw showing:

__________________________________________________ _________________

Hellmuth was playing Heads-Up and the amounts they were playing for were pretty freek'n high. It looked like they both bought in for $10,000.00. Hellmuth was getting his a*s kicked actually and I saw him get stacked twice losing $12,500.00. He re-bought. I didn't watch the whole thing. Here's a funny hand history though where Hellmuth's 2/4 cracked his opponent's A/A winning $7,500.00. Of course when he lost a hand, he'd say his usual "That's so sick." UB was giving them a very favorable rake of $1/ hand.

wow do you remember phils tirade about Q10 in the main event? well If someone called a min raise with 4 2 off and out flopped his AA he woulda pulled out a 9mm and blew his brains out. I love how phil does this. I mean ya he is a good player but he only gets titles because of all the players who fld to him outta respect. I love how he bitches about hands that beat him but I mean COME ONE PHIL you are not getting all your money in the pot with the best 100% of the time. you suck out to. I mean a very goood poker play AND I MEAN VERY GOOD will go all in with the best MAYBE 60% of the time. I mean those hands where your top pair top kicker to an overpair or your an overpair to trips, even the best cant get away from so. I think if phil could just zip that famous mouth of him it would do him well. Honestly I doubt he could call in any WSOP event without trash talking the table atleast a little bit.

Getting people to fold isn't even a part of the game! Oh shit, I thought we were talking about bridge
