Although fans have argued that it is part of Hellmuth\u2019s brand, it wasn\u2019t a good enough excuse for CouRage. Ludwig fans have been glued to the YouTuber\u2019s $1 million poker tournament livestream. Some of the famous guests who have come along for the game have included Ninja, xQc, and Alexandra Botez. However, there was one star who had Twitter divided. Pro poker play Hellmuth, widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, is famed for his \u201cPoker Brat\u201d persona. Although, it proved too much for YouTuber CouRage who criticized Hellmuth on Twitter, claiming he was dulling down an \u201coverall great night.\u201d CouRage slams Phil Hellmuth\u2019s behavior In a series of tweets posted during Ludwig\u2019s livestream on May 2, CouRage called out Hellmuth for his behavior towards his fellow players and the dealer during the game. \u201cMan, Phil Hellmuth. As a fan of poker, I was so excited to watch you help grow the game to a new audience,\u201d CouRage said. \u201cInstead, I watched a grown man baby blame everyone but himself for getting rolled by streamers who were having fun.\u201d Man, @phil_hellmuth As a fan of poker, I was so excited to watch you help grow the game to a new audience. Instead, I watched a grown man baby blame everyone but himself for getting rolled by streamers who were having fun. Alex smoked you in poker AND she\u2019d smoke you in chess. pic.twitter.com\/B7IbtRjCyn \u2014 Jack \u201cCouRage\u201d Dunlop (@CouRageJD) May 2, 2022 Hellmuth\u2019s fans quickly fired back by claiming that the poker star was just playing into his brand. Throughout his career, the 57-year-old has become synonymous with insulting or berating his fellow players, all in the name of entertainment. Yet, this wasn\u2019t valid for CouRage who agreed that Hellmuth is \u201cone of the faces of poker,\u201d but he was \u201cnot the face of this table.\u201d He also called on Hellmuth to tone down his \u2018Poker Brat\u2019 personality and \u201claugh at the hilarity of the table don\u2019t berate it.\u201d I\u2019m seeing people try to tell me it\u2019s been his brand for 15 years. I know that. He\u2019s one of the faces of poker. He is NOT the face of this table. I\u2019d argue MOST people tuned in haven\u2019t watched poker before. Just tone it down. Laugh at the hilarity of the table don\u2019t berate it. \u2014 Jack \u201cCouRage\u201d Dunlop (@CouRageJD) May 2, 2022 CouRage further added that he was particularly angry with the way that Hellmuth seemingly \u2018berated\u2019 renowned chess player and streamer Botez, as well as the table\u2019s dealer. YouTuber CouRage put the issue to bed as Ludwig\u2019s stream continued on late into the night. Although, it\u2019s likely his fellow streamers who attended the tournament will have their say on the drama soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
