Ego Run Amuk

Phil Hellmuth enhanced his reputation as an egomaniac with his entrance to the WSOP Main Event yesterday. You may have seen last year, when he dressed up as General Patton. This year, he acted the role of Julius Caesar, complete with trumpets and a dozen painted models. When Doyle Brunson saw this, he commented, "I love Phil, but come on, man, WTF? I wouldn't do that for a million bucks."

he video seems to be focus more on the women that that stooge. I think I'll send a link of the video to the Hot Chicks with Douchebags web site. I think this qualifies.

Here's another title for your blog entry: "Ego - What a Schmuck!"

That stuff doesn't annoy and I think it's kind of amusing. He's not hurting anyone by doing this and I got a laugh out of it at least.

What to me is not amusing is Phil's antics once he gets to the table vocally berating players time after time. This is the Phil I can't stand and I hope the WSOP will do something to stop Phil if he acts like he did in the 2008 main event and thinks he can just verbally abuse everyone whenever he likes and get away with it just because he's Phil Hellmuth.
