Default Re: Are players like Hellmuth and Matasow

I think Hellmuth suffers bad beats because he is of a school of thought that he must be given respect when he is the raiser and therefore opponets should either fold or not outdraw him. If you raise it up preflop with aces, there is one caller, and the flop comes 467, you don't expect your opponent to have anything, and you sure as hell don't expect him to have an 85 offsuit, however, we see crap like this all the time online. With more online players in these big tournaments, that stuff is probably happening more often there as well.
