Daniel Colman calls Phil Hellmuth a spineless whore

 As we have previously reported, Phil Hellmuth was recently the guest of Brian Koppelmans popular podcast, The Moment. In the thread about the podcast on the 2+2 forums, one of the first commenters was Daniel Colman, who called Hellmuth a spineless whore and a cancer to the world.

Colman, who goes by the name ''mrg331n13'' online, posted the following on the forum:

''Its embarrassing that we have to share our profession with whores like this guy. After I win one drop, he immediately comes on stage to shake my hand in front of a camera and congratulate me. As if he's the gatekeeper to the poker world and welcoming me inside. 

It is truly pathetic that a 40 year old would behave the way he does at the table, not to mention how spineless he is, just willing to take any sponsorship regardless of the company's integrity. Hey, anything for a payday! Really makes me sad to think there's a chance some people may look up to this charlatan. People of his attitude and character are a cancer to this world.''

Colman continued bashing on Hellmuth in a later post:

''The media has rewarded him for his antics where he is always belittling the other players and constant talking about how he is the greatest. I am sure this has had a positive effect on his bank account, but I am not willing to go cheer him on as a savvy businessman for it. If you are going to profit off being a classless whiny brat there should be some repercussions such as people calling a spade a spade and telling it like it is, with hopes of putting enough pressure on person to change their ways without isolating them further (which I may have done). 

As for his time at UB, if I was him I don't know how I could live with myself being the face of a company whose owners were superusing and stole millions from players, and then shutting down and not paying out its users. I would love to have him come on twoplustwo and answer questions about everything.''

Phil Hellmuth replied in a Twitter post later:

''Ouch, I was just attacked big time on a terrific poker forum: TwoPlusTwo. It was personal and it hurts, but I am proud of the man I am!''

Phil's post received mixed reviews:

Jay Farber, 2013 WSOP Main Event Runner-up:

@GTOisbadforme I'll take @phil_hellmuth over Colman any day. One person is an am ambassador for the game, the other rides a moral high horse

Mason Malmuth, owner of 2+2:

@phil_hellmuth Come on 2+2 and answer questions relative to UB. We guarantee you'll be treated professionally.

Lex Veldhuis, Team PokerStars Pro:

@phil_hellmuth maybe you should think about that when you insult random people on national tv moron
