More Sparring Between Hellmuth & Vrabel

Luke Vrabel
Luke Vrabel
Luke Vrabel just took a pot off of Hellmuth when he called Phil's pre-flop raise with J-9 off-suit and hit two-pair on the flop (9's and 6's). Phil was visibly annoyed after the hand and had to walk away from the table to cool off. When he returned to the table he said to Luke, "I just hope you're around long enough to give me all your chips."

Hellmuthian Lecture

Luke Vrabel won a pot off of Hellmuth which set the giant off. Five minutes after the hand, he's still steaming.

"This kid has no chance to win the tournament. He called my raise with J-9," he said before he stood up and lectured Vrabel.

"The sucker calls with J-9. Can you believe that?" he continued his tirade.

"Come on Phil, it's just one hand," taunted Vrabel. "I took 35K off you and I'll do it again. If that's terrible. I'll keep playing like that."

Hellmuth Moves Tables

Phil Hellmuth screamed, "Nooooooooooo!" when the floor supervisor told Hellmuth he was getting moved to another table.

"I was just ready to double up against this guy," Hellmuth said as he pointed to Luke Vrabel. "Check with me in two hours when you're busted and I'm still in."

"Phil Hellmuth, you're my third favorite pro behind my girlfriend and Evelyn Ng."

Evelyn Ng was sitting in between Hellmuth and Vrabel. She caught an earful ever since she got moved to their table.
