Ultimate Bet is promoting a feud between Phil Hellmuth and Bill Fillmaff. According to the press release I saw (thanks to AlCan'tHang), Hellmuth has had enough of Bill. He’s sick of taking crap from the self-proclaimed poker guru, Bill Fillmaff.

Bill claims to be a better poker player than Phil. Hellmuth shot back with, "This kid thinks he's a somebody? He's a nobody. This kid thinks he's better than Hellmuth? He can't even spell Hellmuth." Classic Phil Hellmuth!

So what was Bill's retort to Phil? He said, "I can spell Hellmuth . . . it's D-O-N-K-E-Y." Haha!!

Go check out this UB link. They have some funny video footage of Hellmuth trying to rap! Hellmuth raps about why you don't want to mess with him. I laughed pretty hard watching it!

1. from a promotions perspective...i have to say i like it...comedy is comedy (and yeh stupid is stupid...and sometimes pretty darn funny) and ultimate bet would be better off running with this hellmuth/fillmaff bit then its badly produced poker show i cant bare to watch. we'll see where it leads though.

2. If they script it: It will suck

If they let Phil be Phil, and Bill be Bill improv style: I forsee some laughs
