what do you think of this play?

Why do we only see clips of Hellmuth crying.   I'm sure he must have some good days too.  

Sometimes you get what you want and even then you may not like it.

I'm not a big fan of pushing all-in pre flop with 10-10.

I think I would have called Hellmuth's initial raise.  Either way I understand Hellmuth being upset but I always would want my money in with AA against 1010.  So yes it was a horrible beat but instead of berating the guy for sucking out, leave with some dignity knowing you were all-in as a huge favorites.  There isn't much more you can ask for.

Hellmuth can be pretty sad / funny.  He quite often reminds me of a petulant child.  One thing though - I wonder how much he indulges himself by acting up in order to maintain his poker brat image.

His 15 minutes of fame should have ended years ago.  Not real fond of how the other guy handled the whole situation either.

Whoever it was who said "Poker is all about doing the wrong thing at the right time" must be sat with a smug smile after that

I agree with Mik that Dwan's behavior wasn't exactly commendable either.  Not as bad as Hellmuth, but that's a rather low standard for comparison.  Untortunately, it's one we see poker players too often.  They act as if "I wasn't as bad as you" means their behavior was justified or even acceptable.
