Dannenman Vs. Hellmuth TOC final table

[h_ven]

It's about time someone came out and told Phil off. I loved it when Dannenman told Hellmuth off and said that no one should buy his books or CD's. Why would you Steve get a timout for calling Phil a punk? Who's side are you on?

Good stuff. Helmuth needed to be put in his place.

Dannenman's actions were justified in my opinion. Phil was just being a stupid attention whore.

Dannenman came off like an idiot IMO

i would NEVER understand ppl like Dannenman. why even care? are Phil's chips scattered around distracting him or something? he just wanted to "one-up" Phil i guess...

You have to understand that Dannenman has obviously been working on his game and one of those aspects is the psychological one. If it gives other players an edge against Helmuth then why shouldn't he be able to do it as well?

Hellmuth is asked by the tournament director to stack his chips, as they are spread out over a large area in front of him. Hellmuth lightly challenges him, and it's not long before he and Matusow are back into it. Eventually, even Steve Dannenmann jumps into things, saying that as a professional poker player, he isn't acting very professionally.

We don't have nearly enough threads on this. The longest one wins.
