How do you like the new Poker brat? (for at least one day...)

I was watching the day 2 of the WSOP yesterday and it was the Phil H. show. What did you think about his playing style for that day? Pretty different than what he s usually doing.

I understand that this was "good TV" and Phil doesn not miss an opportunity to make some good TV but this seems to be a pretty good adjustment considering everybody expect him to play tight and trap.

I would have like to see all the hands he played because he probably didn t flop a straight every time he raise with 84o.

At the poker table, you really mean it.

Didn't see it. I did watch the Hellmuth Bash on PAD (recorded from a while ago). I actually found his play to be very similar to mine. In was interested to see how he played against Durr. I guess there is hope for me once I get out of these micro limits. LOL

I missed that one. It is probably good to change it up a bit every now and then. You don't want to be too predictable, it doesn't make for good television!

somehow I will never really respect PH's play:

I need a girlfriend who loves me for my money... and is pretty bad with math.

I haven't seen this before. Without the cameras he'd snap shove that too but on TV, he's in such desperate need to make some sort of a hero fold it's not even funny. I mean even if he runs into KK or AA - and there's no reason to think that, since it's a frickin' standard raise - the fold is still horrible .. you know, don't be results oriented and all.

Regarding the "new" Phil, I wouldn't give him too much credit there. If he doesn't get lucky a couple times like he did in the ME, he's quickly gonna switch back to his old predictable style and the rants.

yup, deciding to sleep when the bubble hits... the time when every remotely serious player should start raping every other guy at the table!

I liked how he complian how the "Live one" was so bad while he took a pot from him with a flopped trip J ( he had AJ ). This guy had a big stack too...
