Hellmuth says he is calling the donks this year at WSOP

"This year I decided, let's play poker," Phil Hellmuth told The Associated Press on Wednesday. "All those amateurs making all those crazy moves on me that they got away with in the past, this year I'm calling."

The online Donk mentality has the best pros in the world changing their games. Is it good for poker?
I don't think so really. This just gives more credibility to the Donks to keep doing what they are doing.
The game is becoming a crap shoot more and more everyday.
RIP old school poker.

well if he makes those calls he will go out early because most of those hands he was losing to the donks. lol

I think that we all must change to adapt to change in poker, just like in life nothing is gonna remain the same and things always change.

For such a good player, he is SUCH a big baby, my god. I remember seeing this behind the scenes thing on him, wheres hes doing tai chi, and talking about being centered and crap like that. And he whines and cries when someone beats him in a hand. If someone bluffs him, theyre a donk, if someone outdraws him, theyre a donk, etc etc. I used to think it was a funny joke, like "hey look at this pro, hes a big baby, what a brat". Now, im seriously just annoyed. This guys head is bigger than the poker rooms hes trying to play in. I can NOW see why people give him such a hard time and are gunning for him. They want to see the show! Poker brat doesnt do him justice... its more like big whiny poker baby b*tch. Sorry for cursing :-p, i just dont think theres any room in poker for THAT.

Phil hellmuth is such a poker baby. My fiancee says im just like him. I get really nasty when i get donked out :mad:
