Johnny Chan Calls Phil Hellmuth a Sissy
Johnny Chan Ginger
In the latest edition of Mike Sexton’s “Sexton’s Corner“, Mike talks with Johnny Chan. In the interview one thing that came up was how Phil Hellmuth used to stalk the top players to study their every move. When asked about this Johnny replied:
“Johnny Chan: {(With a little smile)Johnny said yes very emphatically.} Phil studied me for a long time. He was a very hard worker. During my streak he was watching over my shoulder all the time! He followed me wherever I went. He was a good kid who would even jog with me around the Horseshoe occasionally. He is a good person and family man, even though he acts like a sissy person at the poker table, whining and complaining all the time.”
I guess this isn’t really anything new, as we have all seen Hellmuth whine like a baby at the table. It is just funny because it is coming from Johnny “The Ginger” Chan.
Maybe Johnny is just bitter about Chan Poker closing? Who knows…
