Who is more famous?

[newfant]

Then the discussion turned towards who was the most beloved by the poker world. In fact, big money was potentially on the line if they could agree to the details:

Matusow: I'll bet that if we do a poll on who is more likeable I'll win.

Hellmuth: No we are doing it by Q rating. (A Q rating measures fame)

Matusow: What's that?

Hellmuth: Who is more well known.

Matusow: That's crazy dude I'm not doin' that! Let's do it to see who people like more.

Hellmuth: I'm not interested in that.

Gordon: Wanna bet me Phil, Q score worldwide?

Hellmuth: I'll have to do some research on that.

Gordon: Celebrity Poker is big in Ecuador and Peru.

Hellmuith: You know, the Phil Hellmuth cell phone game is big in Peru too. (not to be outdone) LOL.

*********

I had to get in on the fun:

Gordon: I would bet my Q rating vs. any poker player in the world.

Negreanu: How about Jennifer Tilley?

Gordon: She's not really a poker play though?

Negreanu: Well neither are you!!!

Gordon: So true.

"what you are not taking into account are the people who watch celebritypoker in Belize and Puru"-Gordon(something like that). I hear Gordon is huge in Lima right now, as is the tony danza show, carrot top and re-runs of Blossom.. good company.. .. Hellmuth has 9 wsop braclets Gordon brodcasts Kathy griffen playing cards against Mcaully Caulkin. wow thats rough..

Gordon has kind of fallen of the face of the earth since the first season of WPT. Does he still play tournaments?

Maybe I'd choose matusow if the question were " who is most likely to snort blow off a strippers ass "

I love matusow but he's not most famous

[benkahuna]

Yeah. He played in a number of WSOP events.

Did he do well in any of them? (I haven't seen any of the footage from this year yet)

[benkahuna]

There's only been one episode on thus far, the 1500 NL event. And I think it was yesterday.

I don't think he did especially well. I'm positive he didn't win any events. You could probably look this up pretty easily. I'd happily tell you if I knew off hand.

Funny post. As to who's more famous, without question it's Gordon. Helmuth might be more famous in poker circles but there are people in my family who know NOTHING about poker but they've ALL seen celebrity poker. For that reason, I chose gordon.
