Phil Hellmuth's Latest Claims Spark Poker World Controversy
Phil Hellmuth, the self-proclaimed 'Poker Brat', has been in the news again. This time, he's facing criticism from poker commentators and fellow players, while also promoting various poker deals and defending his legacy.
Hellmuth recently appeared in an interview where he promoted several poker-related offers and deals. However, his claims of being the greatest tournament poker player of all time have been met with scepticism. Brent Hanks and Jeff Platt, commentators on the PokerGO show 'No Gamble, No Future', mocked Hellmuth's passive play and laughed at his claim.
Hellmuth's comments have sparked a wave of responses. Landon Tice shared that Hellmuth tried to sell a seat for a $100,000 event at a 1.3 markup but didn't play when it didn't fill. Meanwhile, Jason Mo responded with humorous comments. Patrick Leonard defended the 'poker kids', stating it's unlikely they talk about Hellmuth. However, Hellmuth himself criticized these 'poker kids' who get staked in every event.
Despite the controversy, Hellmuth has had a successful year. In 2021, he made seven final tables in seven different games. He also expressed interest in proving his all-around tournament skills in cash games, believing that players are asking why he doesn't play super high rollers like the Triton Series. Will Jaffe, however, revealed that he's been blocked by Hellmuth on Twitter after criticizing him.
Phil Hellmuth continues to make waves in the poker world, with his claims and actions sparking both criticism and defence. Despite the controversy, his achievements in 2021 speak for themselves. As for his future plans, Hellmuth seems eager to prove his skills in new challenges.
