Recently, I was watching a final table, somewhere, some year.
Between hands, Daniel Negreanu muttered something like “This game isn’t so tough. You just fold the bad hands and bet the good ones.”
A couple of players were quick to admonish Daniel for revealing trade secrets, but it was too late.
IT’S ALL CLEAR TO ME, NOW !!!

That’s the easy part. The problem is that most players can’t tell a bad hand when they have one. That’s the tough part.
I have JJ. 4d5h6h7h on the board. All in!
Have to protect against the 4th heart on the river! 
he wrote a pocketbook about it in 2007 
Kid poker maybe the nicest player out there–also, a VERY good player and good all-around guy-and smart:).
Maybe at one point this was true, but he’s said and done some terribly cringe-worthy things.
You ever see Phil H… now he a BIG piece of walking…—about the biggest jerk n crybaby-sore loser-big mouth-yelling at poor dealers etc. person in poker…He is doing promos for our casino in Pittsburgh n my nieces husband is the poker room manager n wanted 2 introduce me 2 him–i said NO THANKS:).
Do not know about now-just know when i played a little with him when much younger and watched him play and saw IN person what kind of person he was…
Yes Hellmuth can be a complete d****he sometimes, but often he’s fine. He’s not the worst, no way. Freidman, Kassem, Khabrel, a couple others, they are all worse. Hellmuth is only a jerk 20% of the time, while those guys are jerks 100% of the time. And on top of that, they’re also angle-shooters, straight-up scumbags.
I’ve only seen Hellmuth do something shady once. The rest of the time it’s just tilt tantrums. And he’s the easiest target because he’s such a huge draw that there’s always a camera at his table and his tantrums go viral every time.

Try watching him in person-he is a jerk 100%-no film or tv on-he still an idiot…I never NEVER blamed a dealer or yelled at another player for playing bad n beating me lol–i know, i played much less money but a jerk is a jerk n he is a BIG jerk:).
Never said that he wasn’t. Just saying that there are players with far worse attitudes and behavior.
The thing is-he has been a GREAT player for years-and supposed 2 be a leader and spokesperson for poker–he an embarrassment with NOOO sportsmanship at all n a big baby lol. I played lots of sports in my time (4 major operations 2 prove it lol ) and NEVER saw anyone lose and act like that or treat other players etc. like that—His wife must be embarrassed for him
