Poker Brat Hellmuth In Yet Another Foul Mouthed Rant
4 years ago22 Jun
It wouldnât be the World Series of Poker without a Phil Hellmuth meltdown, this time Layne âback-to-backâ Flack the object of the Poker Bratâs expletive-laden attackâŚ
Sweetness, light and âpositivityâ away from the green felt, Hellmuth seemingly canât control his language when things go the wrong way â but âdonkey motherfuckerâ is perhaps the worst weâve heard yet from the 15-time gold bracelet winner.
Flack busted big Phil just two short of the money in the $2500 Mixed Big Bet tournament and the moment was captured in all its old-school, black-and-white finery by photographer Drew AmatoâŚ
Hellmuthâs own Twitter version of hitting the rail was somewhat less offensive, the Poker Brat persona gone and âintrospective Philâ at the keyboardâŚ
Most players, of course, would be sitting out for a round or two if they tried to match Phil in the sailorâs language stakes, but Hellmuth leads a charmed existence at the tables.
Poker fans will recall last yearâs version of Philâs PottyMouth Hour, one which resulted in him paying James Campbellâs entry into this yearâs Main Event.
It resulted from an ill-timed comment while an important hand was still being played, Hellmuth raging: âThis mother fucking guy ⌠fucking got away with murder all day against me. How in the fuck does this happen?â after âCamby33â had shoved, but with another player still to act before Hellmuth.
Shaun Deeb, commenting on the play, stated at the time:
âThis is so wrong by Phil. This is where Phil deserves penalties. You cannot talk in a multi-way pot and give away your weakness with an opponent still to act. Itâs so wrong he gets away with stuff like thisâ.
