Phil Hellmuth: 1989 WSOP - Final Table Part 1 of 4

[PeterRoeder31]

Hellmuth was not delighted to be "out of that one". He WANTED to have played with his 10/10. That's what he says in his book.

[romeroisking]

Shit, I forgot there are no hand cams.

[JiveDadson]

Ah nostalgia. See how the players and sweaters behave themselves? I miss that a lot.

[crockett616]

and johnny will caaaaall.... aaand raise :)

[johnsull66]

"phil writes childrens books in his spare time..." WHAT?!?!?!?!?

[Spadora1]

does anyone know how much the buy in was for this tournament?

[tqsuited]

@Spadora1 same as always, 10k.. but 1st prize 755k with only 178 entrants in total.

[nile0011]

Patrik had also a great WSOP, even though he didn't play himself that many tournaments. Is it really possible to get free 50 $ from Pokerfrik?

[TheBccemify]

Oh man...between the announcement that Hellmuth wrote children's books in his spare time and then hearing him yell out his hand before Chan even called the all-in...this video is fucking awesome

[Britex123]

damn not even 1 mill for first prize money. times have really changed

[Frienever]

lol, fuck you at 3:38 by Chan.

[timelessfilmscenes]

WTF ???

Phil writes children's books in his spare time ?

@ 5:08

[Blueicepick8]

not enough string bets

[Thegame2188]

Phil Hellmuth- GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME.....

[johnsmith7490]

Man these rigged sites should be banned!!

[DanceAndCrumble]

Durrrr :)

[redhidus]

ha ha phil cryin back then...

[edt5481]

"showing a lot of class, which is unusual for a young player"

probably the first and last time the word "class" would be used as an adjective to describe Hellmuth

"wearing his familiar 'Walk-Man' that he usually wears when he plays...." HAHAHAHAH awesome.....greatness. It's so crazy seeing Phil as a legit person, as opposed to his stupid persona that he's milked ever since this win, more or less.

[StreetsOfSonic]

@edt5481

You misquoted. He said Phil had class but then quickly said, "He's taking his time, which is unusual for a young player," he wasn't relating class to his age. Just a heads-up, but you are definitely correct about your assertion, lol.

Phil hasn't improved one bit... he's so bad.

[djsinya]

@adamspatrick65 I Understand this is an ad ! Idiot

[johnsmith7490]

I will rock all you guys man whos down to play the real thing with me? Let me know we can play webcam poker on pokerview so we can see eachother real live face to face.

[thebangla12]

My guess is that Ziigmund would still get the last of his chips in, and that Antonius would have had to fold even if he was getting 6-1 on a call. For those who are looking to start poker, get your free 50 $ starting capital from PokerFrik website!

[hfdpayner]

5:27 THIS IS SPARTA!!

[TheKarate10]

how the hell do u sign up for the WSOP

[MrSnug25]

@TheKarate10 either win an entry ticket online, get scouted in a live event and get sponsorship acces OR spend 10.000$ as buyin to play it ;)

[TheKarate10]

@MrSnug25 ty im might try it out

[bobbytza13]

and he decides to.....(20minutes later)put some chips in.oh yeahhh.he's such a bad commentator.i hope norman chad will never die

[sneak108]

classic hellmuth he folded the best hand preflop! lol.. thats my guy. and hes ranting in the background about it.. rofl. they said he delighted to be out with the best hand omg. im rolling over here

[sneak108]

i think he called chans set of 7s "7s up"..interesting

[sneak108]

"the pot is right"  nobody says that anymore

[NegreanuDan33]

@chudon8455

Okay dude... If you wanna have a 1 on 1 match my full tilt poker name is coldo7656 :)

And its true

I saw multiple pros sharin all over their FB wall about how you can make an account using the promo code SPECIALS on Full Tilt Pokers web site.

It's a sweet promotional deal. Make a deposit and they DOUBLE it plus multiple other awesome perks. It's only going work for the first 3000 players that register using this

[Chipexcess]

That idiot with ak acts like he got a bad beat when he couldn't suckout on the river.

[GialloHorror]

10 people are idiots from northern Europe

[mikethelibertine999]

childrens books! hahaha hellmuth wtf has happened

[slbobonis]

It's crazy how many people are talking about that Referral Code: FTUS600 for Full Tilt Poker that gets you 600$ for signing up

[echinlv]

I can't believe Full Tilt Poker gives out 600$ when you use the Referral Code: FTUS600

[MrDavejohnson1979]

I just got a 600$ bonus from Full Tilt Poker all because I used the referral code: FTUS600

[annetthowze]

Its unreal that Full Tilt Poker gives people 600$ just for signing up with them using referral code: FTUS600

[azuquitar1977]

Full Tilt Poker Referral Code: FTUS600 for a 600$ sign up bonus

[TheRudyc22]

Yes, signing up with the referral code: FTUS600 at Full Tilt Poker really does get you 600$. My friend did it last week.

[hairsnippster]

Get a 600$ sign up bonus when using referral code: FTUS600

[Devilfish6666]

furlong was either bored or dumb.........

[Dhiraa1]

Ziigmund’s aggressive game is well known, but on this hand it definitely worked against him. BTwn. is it possible that PokerFrik really gives away free 50 $ startin capital?

[CobaltO18]

skinny ass hellmuth!!! HAHAHAHA he looks so retarded

[New987user]

Phil calls with his pocker 10's ... he gets alot of Johnny Chans chips

[July4th2008]

Maybe, he meant to say Phil "act's" like a Chlid in his spare time.

[oneday13]

LOL at 3:38 Johnny Chan flipping the other dude off discretely, while pretending to fix his shades.

[artysm7]

@oneday13 lol yeah, maybe it was to get a read on the other dude

[PokerStreamingOnline]

Crazy Move =)

[BigGameJames1]

you gotta love chan's shades. rock on!

[jamirctg]

We’ll never know, but on this hand it might have been more effective. Anyway the best ay to start poker is to take free 50 $ from Pokerfrik website and then learn with those 50 bucks without risk.

[martoslavchev]

He just caaaaaaalls

[YiDog21]

was this also on espn?

[dadyo123456789]

a think the man is a genius thqat fine line between maddness like but you got love phill poker would be lost without him

[snake8908]

whats with chan and all the pocket pairs!!!!

[arlichar11]

this was when phil actually played poker instead of just assuming his greatness will spellbind his opponents into sumission...

[ataulahbd]

Ironically it was durrrr who was on the losing end of this confrontation. Btwn are there any more sites like Pokerfrik which offers free 50 $?

[KermitTheNig]

I hate Phil

[MyhardPwner]

whiney bitch

[masudhasan123]

He flopped the nuts , but was overtaken by Esvedra’s straight on the turn and Ingenious89’s flush on the river. hehehe i really got those 50 $ from Pokerfrik website, thnx to them :)))

[masudhasan123]

There is a simple way to get free 50 $ without any deposit, check out Pokerfrik website. mwqqzddjsweiwckigoeokmejpqrkai­tffwwean'ivdsmcadmkoqkwduosuj

[prosciutto92]

ROFL phil hellmuth and his pedaphile past

[Leezzyy]

Phil is an 'allright' player, but the worst socializer ever!

[theafrodude22]

3:35 - 3:38 bet $60,000.00 at Chan and then Chan gives him the Birdie i mean "fixes his glasses"

[proudfoot25]

Johnny Chan has less bracelets than Phil Hellmuth because Phil playes 7 times more tournaments than Johnny.

[PSNMarksmanSniper]

@penney5 ooops i pressed 10 by accident, yeah year 2000 had nicer video camera

[AMember2]

Has anyone realized how retarded this commentator is? " K 10 2 offsuit"????

[girlie347]

@AMember2 Maybe you are retarded, calling everyone else retarded when something happens that is different that what you are used to.

So maybe the commentator used terminology different back then, so what ? Everyone played stud, some poker terminology is bound to be different.

But no, in your eyes the commentator is a retard because in 1989 he didn't know what the poker terms in 2010 would be like and sometimes uses a different term.

[AMember2]

@girlie347 first of all my comment was posted 2 months ago and second this one I will always defend because there is no such thing as a "K 10 2 off suit" flop and even if they did use that terminology before I'd still like to see another commentator at the time use the same exact term this guy used, an "off suit flop". The term "rainbow flop" had to be coined way before 1989.

[AMember2]

@girlie347 All in all i think this is a pathetic way to stand out to a person most would consider a bad commentator for the rest that do stand out to this guy I think they are just dumb asses

[PSNMarksmanSniper]

soooo grovey and old fashion, wow it's already been 10 years

[supersomebody101]

5:28 is that hevad khan traveling back in time....man that guy is crazy.

[speeddemon38]

those announcers are good at string betting, lol

[Schneider0112]

i utterly hate texas hold'em but i love watching this idiot (his fav word I guess) this is what happens when u give a baby everything they want

[MoFo872]

lol i think the commentator pretty good all the commentator has to talk about phases of play not make jokes about players and talk shit

[tkdchile21]

look at 6:31 , isnt he the bad guy from spider man 2? lol

[bender2004]

Nice open ship with 44 there buddy. Idiot. How the hell does he have a Main Event title.

[jbm2005]

chan's a fish, he cant even afford to regualrly play on high stakes cash games.

[mattbenz99]

I hate how they don't show you the blinds and the pot size

[AndyH214]

whats up with all the crap and misc items just laying around on that table... looks like the game has been running for 3 days straight! lol

[ScareDe2]

3:38

[Zervin311]

Once upon a time, an idiot from northern europe called a raise with Q 10 offsuit, out of position no less.. xD

[muckerfooker]

Phill writes children's books in his spare time.... ahahaha... EPIC

[sneak108]

@muckerfooker omg i cant believe they said that. so freakin hillarious

[DerniereFan]

@muckerfooker Yeah that cracked me up ! hahahahah =))))

[dukeball3r]

If you enter INSTANT25 as the referral code on your new Full Tilt account you could receive a free $25! But hurry, this offer won't last long!

[hossrex]

Who is this Phil Hellmuth person?

He can't be the same one we have today... he was relatively quiet.

[dantean]

@c05541235 How did you play in 1989?

[MattiasAndersson79]

Hey phil, When you comented on 2005 years main event live i were watching when you comented on me "you remember the swede that run around screaming last year" and then you lauth. That was kinda fun because i were actually listen in at that point. Too bad we never got a chance to play. ;) You are my favorite player to watch because you are like me, not afraid to show emotions. I like that!

[Arlekhine]

@MattiasAndersson79 Are you sure that guy is you? The guy screaming Jaaaaaa!? I dont believe it!

[Arlekhine]

@MattiasAndersson79 Are you sure that guy is you? The guy screaming Jaaaaaa!? I dont believe it!

[Arlekhine]

@MattiasAndersson79 Are you sure that guy is you? The guy screaming Jaaaaaa!? I dont believe it!

[punkr]

"Phil writes children's books in his spare time." ROTFLMAO

I don't care if it's impossible, but I want to buy Phil Helmuth children's books!

[MattiasAndersson79]

@punkr Hey, i do that too!

[dantean]

Now THAT'S ironic!

[mickymacky02]

CALL AND RAISE... ???

[macmac219]

no pocket cams in 89' wow

[hitman3133]

caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaals

[SvedeboXque]

Lol 6th place just over 50k. That's nothing compared to 6th today which is about a million!

[dantean]

@SvedeboXque: Which one did you win?

[SvedeboXque]

I'm not saying I won anything or that it's bad money, just saying that back then poker was no way near as big as it is today!

Jeez

[dantean]

@SvedeboXque: My bad! I thought you "laughed out loud" (lol) at $50K!

[SvedeboXque]

If I could laugh at 50k I wouldn't spend my days on youtube :D

[offfuckfella]

childrens books? HAHAH

[twig1981]

lovin the massive yellow walkman

[florisiznogood]

wow when phil folded i put im on tens

[createwithnate]

lol the commentary sucks so bad

[kingdingle]

"phil writes children's books in his spare time" huh...

[haydentheonlyhayden]

haha i was thinking to myself

more like books on how good he is when he folds 10-10!!!

roflmao

[xxxIzekeIxxx]

so we could see the hole cards at this point? how without the cameras?

[kingdingle]

i'm sure that this was all taped and the commentary and hole cards were edited in afterwards.

[personalit]

"Two black tens I had!!" you can hear in the background. Hilarious.

[ovechkin100]

i hate phil

[treezX]

announcer sounds like he doesnt even know holdem

[alrightythenGr]

Boy the commentator suckedddddddd

Phil looked like a nice guy there! Maybe ageing through bad beats made him a sort of **** we see today!

[zivinazajebana]

@alrightythenGr naaaaaaah,here he was fine but in the meanwhile he won 10 bracelets more so he became full of himself...we all know phil is the best,he just like to point that out :-D

[beebobox]

bad beats u mean the next 10 bracelets he got?

:p

but yah i agree, he's probably a horrible person to play against, both because the bracelets would make you feel intimidated, his constant chatter about every mistake he makes is the fault of someone else, and if you win he gets whiny.

i'd rather play better players (not that i'd stand a chance in hell against any pro players hehe), and lose more money then have to sit as the same table as him.

[addicted2music21]

@alrightythenGr lol the guy commentating isnt the same... the guys here are now hosting poker after dark :)

[createwithnate]

lol Phil writes child books in his spare time, I wonder what kind, maybe child temper tantrum books

[BigCollegeGuy]

even back in 89 phil was a whinney little baby

[ketchup143]

noel furlong won the '99 main event. lyle berman wrote the pot limit omaha section for doyle brunson's supersystem 2 that came out in '05.

[weedipikia]

"He's going all in and Chan has him..."

[marcosnl281]

"phil writes childrens books in his spare time" lol

[nightmaredust911]

these guys go all in with anything. Phil helmuth and Chan are the best!

[2kidsnbroke]

Wow, the prize money,

1989, 1st place=$ 755,000

2009, 1st place=$ 8.5 million. $900,000 for 12th place

[kpbrigade]

whats your point?

[MrAlio101]

Yeah 755,000 would have been a lot more 20 years ago you tard...something called inflation

[wangotangowhoo1234]

inflation? of more than 1000%?

[AlexanderThePitiless]

@2kidsnbroke

at that time 755k$ was alot

[rypaz87]

you suck so bad, hellmuth

[PIPoker1]

Those glasses rock. Love this old school video

[TheSmok3]

LOL they played so bad at that time xD How could he call the first hand with pair of 4?!

[Encl0suRe]

Well the call wasnt that bad, hitting a set would give him a lot of chips. but the all in after the flop was just stupid. what did he put chan on? QJ? pair of 3's? idiot all in

[shabieiqbal]

lol i agree dude.

[sienipata]

RAKEBACKVILLAGE,COM

More money playing poker.

[DOYJOH]

[tronuD2]

phil writes childrens books in his spare time.

[SuperChuck3]

LOL!

[videoluvr4204]

lol writes children's books i wonder if we could get our hands on any of these books if there were ever any published

[BigDrew11189]

phil hellmuth used to write children's book wow lol very scary

[HalfEatenDimSim]

Hi Drew it's me Cyril, I met you at gay bar the other week and you sucked me off. How are you?

[skateDT]

They should rename this video the Johnny Chan Final Table

[cardifanscom]

I wonder why they don't go back and recreate the hole cam based on when they turn cards over

[Motherfunctional]

damn, no beef jerky pocket cam :(

[stevesport1]

i wonder what cassette tape helmuth is listening to

[daddygreenjeens]

he was listening to a tutorial on how to be a big complaining douche bag (muck your hand idiot)

[stevesport1]

lol

[LindaGlass27]

Phil Helmut is the best!

[DAdZor]

lol phil was so young :))

btw camera angles suck

[Sambarre]

that was a good call on the first hand with the pocket Queens. Before I saw the cards I figured someone for that King.

Why are poker players so cool?
