Default Re: I like Phil Hellmuth

[ QUOTE ]
Hellmuth didn't claim AQ losing to 77 was a bad beat like the guy who lst w/ JT to 99 did claim. He claimed it was a bad/crazy play.

Does anyone agree with Phil that it was a crazy play?

I don't recall the details exactly but I thought X22 raised (from UTG?), Lon says this amount is almost Phil's entire stack, it folds round to Phil (in the BB?), Phil has AQ and goes all in and X22 calls for presumably a small amount more. I got the impression that Phil was desperately short stacked at the start of the hand and X22 made a standard raise, and a no-brainer call at the end. I don't think the blinds and stack sizes were known at that time so I can't be sure. Anyone remember?
