Default Re: High Stakes Poker thread (10/29 - spoilers possible)

i can agree that they are/were proven to be the best of the pre-moneymaker boom generation. However, I think the game has changed and is changing so fast that they are only really "world class" when playing against the people they came up playing against in the first place. Although i can def admit that saying they are "bad" is overstating since any winning player at any stake is way the [censored] above average obviously. So basically yes they were the best in the world at one time, no they (most of them) are not in that category anymore, at least not to the point where anyone is going to know whether someone the caliber of J-man, adams, townsend etc. is outclassed in 50 hands. I basically think the only thing that anyone (posting here at least) really knows about J-man's edge if any in that game is that 50 hands proves nothing either way.
