Re: What a difference Hellmuth Makes
I thought his broadcast of the WSOP main event final table on cardplayer was really entertaining. He talked about himself a lot of course, but he also gave analysis about the hands that you don't hear on WPT or ESPN ever.

???? are you referring to a comercial if so which? Or are you trying to be sarcastic in response to my saying Eric L. is probably a better player than Phil H. If the latter go ask Daniel N. who the better player is. [/ QUOTE ] It's not about you. |

Re: What a difference Hellmuth Makes
Interesting about the McEnroe comparisons. Doyle Brunson and Howard Lederer were on McEnroe's Show (when it was still on last year) and they both joked with John about a certain player who was the "McEnroe" of poker. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: What a difference Hellmuth Makes
I thought Howard Lederer did a great job when I saw him doing commentary. I liked him and Annie together too.
Howard was a "just the facts" kind of commentator but his understanding of the game makes his commentary fascinating to me. Personally I think Helmuth is great. As a player and commentator. I like his brattiness. He kind of expresses the way we all feel when we get that suck out bad beat, lol. What I REALLY like about him is that he knows he's a brat and earlier on expressed an understanding that it wasn't cool and he needed to become a bit more mature about it all. I, personally, think that it's good buisness for him and he realizes that what was once just "bad form" is now good tv. I think he uses that image to his advantage now. |

Re: What a difference Hellmuth Makes
I was also amazed by how good Hellmuth's commentary on the UB/Fox event was. I instantly put him into the top two poker announcers on TV, along witht the other Phil, Gordon.
