Howard Lederer a Phil Hellmuth Fan

Howard Lederer and Doyle Brunson were just discussing Phil Hellmuth's final table appearance in Event #15, $1,500 NLHE, which is currently being broadcast over the internet.

Lederer: "I'd buy that webcast just to watch Hellmuth play... that's going to be worth something. I mean, the guy's the most successful no-limit hold'em player in the world."

Brunson: "Yeah, but you can't copy his demeanor. That's what it is."

Lederer: "I think you're gonna see a lot of small bets with like, third pair and things. That, combined with the fact that he hits the nuts about once a round."
