That dude had a level head about having AA cracked

[@marllomon]

it wasnt his money

[@skeemininnem]

@@marllomonhe’s a bracelet winning pro with a incredible understanding of the game. And he only sold some action he didn’t sell it all, genius.

[@Tritiuminducedfusion]

​@marllomon Thinking the main event is only about "money" is a casual take. It's every competitive poker players dream to win it.

[@ChesapeakeBayBrian399]

@@marllomon some of it was, nobody gives 100% away to play for free.

[@atc5321]

​​@@skeemininnemhe got in 56 high on a Q7T board as a 4 better on the flop in the bracelet event he won vs KQ with 90 left lol

[@Downbeatzzz]

It’s cool that Phil likes to have fun but between the awkward “dancing/moves” and the fact that nobody seemed to care at all… that was kinda painful to watch

[@Joshezellentrepreneur]

It's classic Hellmuth. If it worked it wouldn't be "him". Hearing him talk about going to the wrong doors, missing the cue, and how much longer it was to the table than anticipated while playing was hilarious. Keep it up Phil, I showered up to Vegas and hung out last year, just to hopefully watch your entrance. 👍

[@CRAIG5835]

Only Phil cares, he is so awkward it is cringe.

[@craigrobinson99]

It’s fun, I don’t mind.

[@smithjohn3080]

Yes its called cringe watching, we are laughing at him not with him

[@randazzler9512]

Hellmuth's awkward mockery of the event has become just a strange tradition now.

I read this comment before I was at the point of his majestic entrance on the stage, and thought you meant he has been taking some nasal beers, which also made sense.

[@cdcace78]

Just curious, does Kung Fu help bullet catching? 😂

Phil and his backup dancers " the Remember Me's?

[@benzienugent2010]

Before late-reg was a thing Phil used to get blinded-down before his 4pmish entrance. Goid ol days.

[@Tritiuminducedfusion]

What in the actual fk did I just watch.... at least I didn't have to see this guy in tights again. That is imprinted on my brain, unfortunately.🤦‍♂️

[@chrisko6439]

Phil is a good guy after all, so people forgive him his faults and even take part in this extravaganza :)

[@vallacespoker7902]

That’s an elite response …

Nice footage unseen by most. The full Helmuth entrance set up was refreshing and cool.

You mean tool

[@tripduece2055]

Played with the grinch hat guy at wsop in 2019 and he is absolutely horrible at poker. Was just punting off his stack in dumb spots for no reason.

[@AudibleKingdom]

Jack Effel the newest victim on OZEMPIC it’s just ridiculous

[@darylmixan8170]

I truely wonder about the prep and collab for this... Did they think it was going to be amazing? Was this the best they could come up with? It still probably cost Phil $50,000.

[@williv]

Hellmuth is the king of cringe. The Michael Scott of poker.

I've never understood his "entrances". Why? Just why? I don't get it.

Your ego must be this high to understand.

[@ksho313]

Im guessing. . It was paid for by *$Karate* to get exposure... also it may be more evident thru nbc instead of the current streams

From 600 to 2,800 is a 3-bet? Someone explain that to me.

3 has nothing to do with the value or the size of the bet. Any continuation bet is a '3-bet'

[@ambientexpanse]

Real men don't use that C word, lol.

[@walterwhite2870]

Part of the game.. But with all the ICM involved, don't make the pot so big pre..its the main event. Better you win 20-40k than 60k cause on the other hand you maybe lose all and with 20-40 you still are in when losing. The chips you could win with allin are not so important than the hole stack you could lose.. You have time buddy.. Especially in THIS tournament.

[@aceking_offsuit]

There are times to lay down aces, but this was not one of them. Unless you're talking about the stone cold bubble or a significant pay jump later in the tourney, you should never walk away from a situation where you're at least 3:1 to double up.

[@ambientexpanse]

What does 'ICM' stand for and how does it work in a poker tournament?

[@aceking_offsuit]

@@ambientexpanse Independent Chip Model. It's a model that you can use to calculate a real money value for your chip stack in a tournament.

[@StaceNyourFace]

Its very distracting for the players when Hellmuth does that nonsense every year during the WSOP.

You're just jealous, lol.

Phil Dirt Helmuth's entrance this year was a total embarrassment to everyone involved and to the WSOP as a whole. It was nothing but a narcissistic, grandiose, parade of over inflated egos. But let me tell you how I really feel..............

He got it all in pre. You do that 100 of 100 times with AA if you have the opportunity.

[@BobbyB21_]

@@Brian-uy2tj you are looking at end results of hand only. You would play AA all in preflop any chance you get.

[@EdDy4RheelZ]

Love this results-oriented comment. If im put all-in first hand with AA and its heads up, Im gonna call. If I know my opponent will call my all-in pre-flop while im holding Aces and its heads up, I'm shoving.
