Default Opinions in Hellmuth\'s million dollar system

Just wondering what's the popular opinions on Phil Hellmuth's million dollar system or something like that (sorry I don't have the video on front of me)

For those who doesn't know it, it's basically that you sit in limit game and play only

1. A-A
2. K-K
3. Q-Q
4. A-K suited
5. J-J
6. 10-10
7. 9-9
8. 8-8
9. A-Q suited
10. 7-7

Those are as he calls them Phil's top ten hands, IIRC. He instruct you to play them agressively (the higher it's ranked the more agressive you play them). He say that while you have no clue what you're doing you have the mathematical edge with those hands.

Now don't get me wrong, I like Phil, as a matter of fact he's one of my favorite player to watch (yet definitly not my top player overall) but that video just brought him down in my book.

What the hell, to me that was an OBVIOUS attempt at cashing out on the popularity that he has. Any noobs that see Phil Hellmuth's million dollars system will think he can win million playing poker, which is obviously not the fact.

I won't go any further, as I don't want to reveal the content of the video to all of you...perhaps potential buyers [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] but I'll welcome comments on it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

EDIT : Corrected the list of hands I posted after verification...sorry.
