Phil Hellmuth Loses His Mind Like You've Never Seen Before at the 2021 World Series of Poker 

He is such a disgrace to the game much like his book on "positivity". What a joke this guy and shame on WSOP for pandering that manchild. Anyone else would've been banned for life like he should be.

@@svenpoletka5236 he has a book on positivity then listen to him talk

@@anonymousraw766 I just listened to him spewing his toxic abuse for a few minutes and he's behavior is only getting worse, but I'm sure his book is kinda funny.

@@svenpoletka5236 Phil has done a lot for poker. He has definitely influenced many people to watch and play poker. He's just an arrogant, toxic player. Many Goats in games are. Look at Michael Jordan. He's a douchebag who insulted and abused fellow players. But he was a goat and good for basketball. They're not going to ban him. Phil definitely went over the line and should receive penalties for this.

Is it uncensored unlike this crap

My reason for living.

except when they're click bait... this one isn't but the last one totally was.

Hahahahaha

My only reason for playing poker. New hellmuth blowup I love it!

Couldn’t agree more

Agreed. Being a famous player shouldn't give you the right to be act like this at the table.

The WSOP Main Event one year showed a guy so much as saying the f-word getting an orbit/time penalty. Hellmuth shouldn’t be getting special treatment. If I was there, I’d call the floor

Quit being a bish

Players shouldn’t be allowed to berate each other but who gives af about swearing. They’re all grown adults this isn’t elementary school

And he cried about wanting Eric Perrson kicked out because he was getting under his skin in the heads up tournament

I would stand up and rant about winning the pot and what is that guy doing over there just to mock him

They realize how sick it is he only complains when it’s a sick loss

Well I guess you'll need to have a poker face in that kind of business.

They dont want phil to start cursing at them is the reason.

Because they're not Tony G. or Persson

Oh come on, "everyone knows how he plays" Phil has bluffed some of the biggest readers in the world.

@@qcdoomqc Nonsense!

@@qcdoomqc link to Phil helmuth bluffs please I can think of one time

@@qcdoomqc Phil doesnt actually bluff. He let's you "push him" around and "step on him" so he can "set a trap" later 🤡

PHIL H is the biggest POW in the game. do you remember when he played TOM D in Poker after dark and called Toms river all in for 115K with bottom pair on a TT board? lol

Was listening for this the entire video. Norman's laugh was funny here lol

time stamp?

@@ThatWasLoud 5:50

Omg that had me cracking up. Hahaha

What a sad little man with a sad little life! I feel sorry for him and they should give him another bracelet out of pity.

@@velipulla3936 Beta B

Hellmuth is wrong but I don't think young kids should learn or watch poker

@@foramuricy why not? Great way to learn some math, body language and leverage your personal situations to your advantage. I play (pretend money for prizes) with my teens all the time

@@foramuricy Yes, I agree...kids should definitely wait until the age of 18 to have any contact with (or even know about the existence of) this game. All the great players found out about this game after coming of age, of course.

@@jaredgrube6320 Right, but they're learning how to play via playing with their parents or friends, not learning how to play by watching RU-vid videos of emotionally unstable adults who can't behave professionally. The point he's making is if my kid came up to me and said "hey Dad, I want to learn how to play poker", the very last thing on Earth I'm doing is handing him an Ipad and telling him to watch Phil Hellmuth videos.

58 is not that old. on the other hand, if you look at his tantrums i back off and agree

He's a multimillionaire

I think him being so close to winning a bracelet making multiple final tables has finally broke him

Exactly :,)

@@filippejic8864 The dude has 15 of 'em already and, unless I'm forgetting someone, I believe he has more second place finishes, final tables and cashes than anyone else in WSOP history, or if not, very close to it. You'd think he'd be used to coming up short by now. He's 57 and acts like a child. It's really not okay for him to be going "motherfucker, motherfucker" and badmouthing the other players when he loses a hand. It's unprofessional, unsportsmanlike, paints poker in a bad light and is disrespectful to the other players. The tournament director should really be intervening.

Yes, I saw that and thought the same thing. Had to double-check that this was a 2021 play.

😂

Would chase every time.

This vid was hilarious bu he did run that 3rd 5 down to the river like a total donk tho.

Hes right, the guy called an under-the-gun raise with 559 rainbow with three other players behind, which is dumb as hell. I don't think the guy is a very good Stud player, not many players are TBH.

@@MrRondonmon He (Chidwick) crushes NLH though ;) but yeah, he played that hand pretty bad. Phil is a crybaby, it's sad to see a grown man acting like a little child.

@@jason9979 Yea, but the whole film has a focus point, if they spotlighted others after every bad beat I am sure they bitch and gripe also. It's a little over the top, it's just his style, some people are just not talkers and they steam inward, it's not really relative tbh. Some head coaches blow their stack, some don't. This would be a boring-ass world if we were all the same, LOL.

@@MrRondonmon so we want players to play good hands against us? That's when I speculate with a bingo hand and it hits. The other player gets mad I got lucky with trash, I then ask them if they want me to play better hands against them. They often don't know what to say then.

No grand children is going to know this idiot phil hellmuth. And people who play 10k tournament don't think this guy is a legend at all.

@@tsze06 you’re ignorant.. of course he’s a legend. You don’t know anything obviously

Lol it would be an honor

@@darron614 Pffft! I don't care who he is, I'm not going to just sit and take it whether it had an effect on me or not. I'd tell him about himself like Santeri Valikoski (idiot from Nothern Europe) did back in '08. He acts like he hasn't been playing for decades and has never suffered a bad beat before. Like he's somehow entitled to every pot that he enters just because he's Phil Hellmuth. IDGAF, I'd give it him right back! I also think it's fucked up that he gets preferential treatment at WSOP because of his "celebrity" status. If you or I acted like this, even to a much smaller extent, tourney officials would be all over it with strong penalties (maybe even disqualification). Hardly a level playing field.

@@krissavagelive Let's be real there's no way you could give a rant half as good as Hellmuth

timestamp?

Where ?

@@JICM25 8:55

What does that mean lol

@adi, great job man! I didn't hear that the first time. I'm going to have to add those words to my poker game. Lol!

Acting tough sure sounds like whiny little bitch these days

Sam Grizzle slapped him up

@@blank5210 Yes he did! No cops were called as KvW above seems to think would happen though. I'd have loved to see that slap live just to see what Phil said or did afterwards!

My weed got tooken..

Yeah, he’s a poker brat, its fun to watch the meltdowns but that’s all they are a brat throwing a fit.

Persson is still a clown. He's not as important as he think's he is.

@@joebenson528I agree but that doesn’t discount how well he tilted phil in that heads up match

@@joebenson528 Some truth in that but he can definitely lose a lot with great politeness.

They know it's good for poker television lol he knows when he's pushing the wrong buttons these days

Right, and he's a big ass bitch anyway, it's mind boggling.

Being 6 ‘ 5 “ helps. Also being known as one of the nicest guys ever away from the table helps.

@@stevemoore3951 I knew he was tall but after your comment I went and looked it up. Dude is 6'7, I doubt many players could reach his face to punch lol.

@@stevemoore3951 i would need to see proof of him being a nice guy off the table. he has every characteristic of a narcissist bully.he just angle shot a youtuber for $5000.00 last week. I think he's a total scumbag

Living the dream

We’ll we know it’s not roid rage haha

Ya' gotta get out more .

@Bobby Dillon The older we / he get{s} the more ya' realize .

To be fair, after bad plays and suckouts, id be upset, too. But I'm sure you're a bigger person with zero bracelets.

@@jefferyharper5720 Seems as if , " you're in the same boat " .

It's mega humiliating, especially for someone with so many achievements 🤐

I wish Tony G was in this too.

Tony G is a POS. Phil is a bad loser for sure. But Tony is a bad winner. Which just makes him a terrible human.

Bring out the trike!

@@1averageamerican Phil should teach Tony G how to react to a win and Tony G should teach Phil the reverse.

When does he say that? I didn’t hear it

@@SanguineYoru check twitter

@@SanguineYoru It was in the original broadcast. They cut it from the highlight reel here is what I meant

@@KamikazeELF lol wtf he really said he'd burn down the casino that is crazy and reminds me of Milton from Office Space

You boys ok? Need a cuddle? It’s an act, brings viewers, helps his sponsorships. He’s a very clever man.

Whatever happened to the new rules about "player abuse"?

Kappa

@@TonyEnglandUK they don’t apply to Phil “Mother F*cker, you stupid idiot!” Hellmuth. Any other player so much as THINKS of the naughty F word, the hammer of management comes a crashing down. Phil spews literal psychological abuse, the management is like “woo! Ratings bump and a new clip to put on RU-vid!”

Lol He and Kyle Busch should start a NASCAR Team.

Agree .Hellmuth needs a smack in the chops

true, Negreanu says it well in his latest video. Of course he need a penalty of some sort.

So true. If it was one of us, a major penalty would occur.

No he gets invited to the final table and still can't win anything he is a walking joke..he get invited to final table and the rest of the players have play light out to get there...unfair

@@kevinfowler1218 banned for life actually. He broke several rules and a few laws by saying he was gonna burn the place down (even though he didn't mean it)

I could see the mouth doing that.

He's played high limit 7 stud and expects qq to hold against a hand with an ace and 3 flush showing? ..

Even when his opponents play straight forward poker, he still flames them. I remember him going nuts at Levy because he played QTs vs Hellmuths 88

That's always the reason. That.... And magic rivers

So true :))

Hellmuth has a cap at 100 F-words, anything over that and he is gone from game for one whole round.

Fairly certain than ruled was removed after 06 because it was ridiculous

I would have asked to cease the cussing anyways, just to tilt him further.

Wow good memory. I forgot 2006 was a poker thing. 200 fucking 6. lmaooooooo the gold era

Cause they know ppl like seeing hellmuth in this situation. You miss the drama if you stop f word 😀

It's not on the dealer it's on the floor

The dealer should have brought it to the floors attention, which didn’t happen. But the dealer isn’t the judge, can only defer.

Good for tv

@@troymcallister8400 the dealer isn't there for TV purposes, this is a penalty against every other player at the WSOP but ignored when Phil goes off. Hypocritical to say the least of the WSOP.

@@edt9666 I’m sure the floor know what’s going on

perfect

Because poker is a different mind set going for ur jugular mentality then when he gets beat it's very frustrating for him obvs lol

Because poker is his life !!

@@jamesm9192 jugular

Lmao

This video was fairly disappointing. I was expecting a premium meltdown but it was just standard Phil.

Hellmouth

🐐

Me too and I don't even know how to play poker.

Oh, he does. And when it does he wins because, of course he had a superior analysis of his opponent's hand, whereas when he loses it's because his opponent is an idiot.

what site do you play on?...im dying to find one...americas cardroom has done me dirty

He is going to be remembered as one of the best tournament players ever who got millions upon millions of people interested in poker with his books. And for the fact that he cross the line from time to time. But the way you think, no , thats not how most will remember him :)

@@Maaden84 I beg to differ but you do you. Crossed the line from time to time? He's a contemptible human being and I think that's how he will be remembered by far more people than you think

@@hetzer7366 he is putting on a show because it helps popularize the game

This is all part of his tactics. Hence why he acts like this.

Seems like you’re the one with amateur thinking, friend. Poker is not a game of luck.

@@sethnaidu9638 its both skill and luck combined buddy

@@sethnaidu9638 hi Seth. You’re right but not really my point. The luck aspect is exactly why it’s worse to berate someone and make them feel uncomfortable when you’re an ambassador and a legend. Every poker player is guilty of after the fact emotional lashing. The more seasoned you get the more you understand how trash-like behavior it is. And for someone as seasoned as him to still do it, on TV, and not face many consequences, rubs me wrong.

Because the opponent calls with nothing on that river flush and shouldn't have called to begin with. Nor should have continued calling after Phil showed strength. Donkey just got lucky by being in a hand he shouldn't have been in.

@@sethnaidu9638 poker is all about luck. but you can keep thinking otherwise, we love easy money.

You like to feed your wife?

@@nothingmatters6026 😂😂😂😂

He is like a big swearing teddy bear

So has his wallet

Hahaha, my thoughts exactly... Big crybaby, so easy to read 😆

To be fair, there’s a large gap between entertaining and acting like a crybaby every time you lose a pot.

Ya you’re kinda right about the hypocrisy. The blow ups are entertainment, but I cringe at the blatant disrespect and belittlement. Why can’t he be mad at his luck, not the random joe shmoe with no voice living out his dream on a tv table. It is all about Phil to Phil

This is a ridiculous statement expressing a false dichotomy. I don't want a boring statue that sits behind a hood, oversized sunglasses, and never says a word. I also don't want a cantankerous child that has a meltdown every time someone doesn't cave in to his raises. There are other options aside from these two.

saying f*** 40 times doesn't make you a character in a good way though, I like Phil but this wasn't entertaining imo

hey moron, we can want more entertaining and rich characters while also NOT wanting people to be terrible human beings. I'd rather GTO robots than Hellmuth but I prefer the golden era of TV poker's characters to GTO robots, you created a complete strawman

Some people are just ultra competitive and can't turn it off while they are in that mode. But when there's no competition that switch is off and they have no reason to be aggressive.

Yeah, 3 final tables in the WSOP so far this year. He should quit before he gets hurt!

@@stephenshaw7593 When you have the money to enter any tournament and as many as you want, odds are you're going to get on some good runs.

To the coach

@@id10t98 Nah man, 3 final tables in a row is more than luck

@@stephenshaw7593 So what you are saying is that Daniel Negreanu sucks then since he has only won one tournament in the last 7 years? Did he lose his skill? lol

You actually do. The old school classic poker pros are the most fun to watch and what made poker more popular. Nobody wants to see some young tech international nerd who takes 5 min to call like we’ve seen in the last 10 years

@@westhoodqualzini7884 It's getting tedious and franky unpleasant to watch a 57 year old act like that.

@@blokin5039 that’s your opinion don’t watch. Go watch a boring hooded sun glass wearing tech nerd who shows no emotion

@@westhoodqualzini7884 Poker is dying because folk like you refuse to adjust. I'm entertained by Phil just like that crazy person across the street but watch Poker for the game, not the antics. And most of the oldtimers are boring

@@blokin5039 did you watch the main event final table? The game was undeniably faster even just 10 years ago. So when you say boring I really don’t know what you mean by that. Btw I’m young i got into poker at 13 watching the 2009 wsop. What do you mean old timers? The “old timers” had personality’s that made the game fun to watch. If you want to to watch for the game go ahead but people aren’t interested in that and the views show it

Hey! How long you been doing poker?
