How One Insult Made This Poker Star QUIT The Game 

What's the most memorable Phil Hellmuth meltdown?

As amusing as he has been for the past twenty+ years, how he is allowed to be verbally abusive towards other players is just beyond me.

He can give it but if someone gives it back he quits, he really is the biggest brat ever

No excuses for players abusing other players or dealers

I do not understand why players accept his behaviour. The only player he never berated is Phil Ivey

He should be called the Poker Crybaby not the poker brat

"Helmuth fans?" Is there even such a thing?

When you point the shit coin phil is shilling that's just crossing the line

Pro poker players become an empty shell filled with their demons after awhile 💀💀speaking from experience I do have some degree of empathy for the misguided ones like Phil as he suffers more than the people he negatively affects with his darkness

I love rooting for Helmuth. He is an inspiration that you could be a famous poker professional without any skill.

He’s also bad for games where he buys in for the absolute minimum and plays only premium hands. For example the game with all the streamers where they are there with tons of money and he bought in severely short stacked. The table was trying to have a good time but Phil just kept complaining and definitely decreased everyone’s fun. It was suppose to be a game to show the joyous side of poker and get new players interested in it, but all Phil did was show the ugly side and make new viewers less enthusiastic to play. For that game they should of had Negreanu in there instead who talks a whole lot more and has tons of positive energy like joking with other players and laughing a lot more, compared to Phil who looks annoyed all the time

Of course he is 8:14 a fantastic player with an incredible understanding of the game. However, other players are as good even better(there are many). Unless they play as he deems the game should be played he berates them. A fucking bully

AK suited? They weren't suited...red yes, but suited no ..

Oh, the irony, the idiot who has hurled the most insults at other people(a lot of them total strangers) at a poker table than anyone alive, gets his feelings hurt by someone at the poker table!!

He sometimes leans too hard into "pokerbrat" ... sometimes his level of delusion, boasting, name dropping, boasting, projecting, boasting and generally being obnoxious gets a bit Trumpesque! I'm sure Phil has the biggest crowds and would certainly wave to the airport too! I like Phil but he needs to dial it down.

Phil has emotional outbursts like a 5 year old kid.

Hellmuth is the poker version of trump

Phil should be treading lightly in the poker world after his involvement with the ultimate bet scandal. Even if he didn’t know about the god mode he knew it was shady for sure. Used to like him but can’t really stand helmuth anymore.

How bout the infamous online rise of Viktor Blom "Isildur1"?

Terrible comment! Phil hellmuth is not poker. That is exactly what it wrong here. He thinks he is bigger than the game and he isn't. He should get banned.

Hey Kyle! How are you doing today 🙂?

Of course it's a chiefs fan. Probably a recent one.

so many cry babies in comments saying ban him lol. He is who is is, those who "get offended" fit right into the modern world. Grow a pair. If have problem deal with it dont cry oh he abused me. weak.
