Is it just me?

After hearing everyone say how great Phil Helmuth is, and how he is always saying he knows exactly what people have.

I don`t get it, every time I see him play he makes some terrible calls, is way too agressive and cries when somebody calls him with a better hand!

His major tactic is running people over while on the button.
On the WPT event on the travel channel tonight he was 2nd in chips, yet was way too agressive against too many opponents.
If he is raising every other hand people know that he can`t be getting premium hands every time.
(well duh Phil!)

He lucked out in an earlier hand while a dog and went dancing off into the crowd celebrating.
When the guy beats him calling with KQ vs his KJ he has the nerve to have a pop at the guy for celebrating.
The funny line was about "showing some class"
PH is a very classless loser.

Is this guy real or a cartoon?

I think the guy thinks he is good but is actually lucky when he wins something.
I think his reading ability is poor, he is more often wrong than right.

Paul Darden, the winner played it perfectly all the way.
He was very selective while the table had many players at it and gradually got more agressive as the players dwindled.
He mentioned about learning from PH.
He probably meant I learned what NOT to do!

Any comments.
