Hellmuth takes game 1

[CrazyEvan]

totally, as much as I like Chris Ferguson, I was rooting for Phil to win, so many people criticize him so much. Phil is an amazing player.

This is pretty much what all the longtime Phil bashers on this board have said for about 6 months now as far as I can tell.

Yes, that's it word for word: everyone has said many times that phil will never win anything again. It is good that you can tell so far.

Time for some big apologies....is Paul Phillips anywhere to be found?

I apologize for my affiliation with the communist party and for still beating my wife.

Paul - what's up with the Unabomber/Grizzly Adams look? You seem so much more metro than that.

Nice post.

Apparently people have confused your love of Hellmuthian memoriabilia for a burning hate of the man.

[FrankLu99]

what is the structure of game play of the final 4?
is it single elimination best 2/3 or 3/5 or 5/7?

[freekobe]

the final was best of 3; everything else was single elimination.

I've read this whole thread, and have one question -- which tournament did he win?

[cwsiggy]

National Heads Up Championship to be broadcast on NBC in May on I believe 4 Sundays in a row. $500,000 to him

The crowd explodes as Ferguson spikes a 9, giving him a full house, and well over $1 million in chips.

Chris spiking a 9 on the river? That's never happened before... heh.

Sounds like a great match.. can't wait to see it.

Congrats Phil!
