Hey Propane Goat,
Awesome thread! 🔥
In my opinion, the poker pro who should never coach new players is Phil Hellmuth.
He’s obviously a living legend with 17 WSOP bracelets and one of the greatest tournament records in history — nobody can take that away from him. But his famous “Poker Brat” personality, explosive meltdowns and impatient attitude are the total opposite of what beginners need.
New players make mistakes all the time and need patience, encouragement and clear, simple explanations. Hellmuth’s style often comes across as condescending (“How can you not see that?!”), which would probably destroy a beginner’s confidence instead of building it up. I’ve seen some of his coaching clips and live rants… entertaining for TV, but terrible for teaching someone who’s just starting out.
Completely agree with what you said about the “you don’t get it because you’re stupid” vibe.
Who’s your pick? Can’t wait to read everyone else’s answers! 😄
Cheers,
Martin
