because of his outside businesses johnny chan plays fewer tourney's and still wins.
today when he is focused i would take phil ivy over all of them.
and you left off stu unger, who might be the best ever.
plus hellmuth is very good, i hate him at my table, his track record is impressive.
i hate these polls so i didn't vote.

Registered in '06, 30 posts, thought this reply was genuine? Was it? Did you really think it was? Wow, I'm getting lost in all the sarcasm levels in this El D classic thread. Well done, masked man.

Who are Madsen and Gale. I never heard of them.

Unger is obviously the only choice. I would go with Huck's recommendation as he has sat with Stuey and the others.

I think Moss, Cloutier, Ivey also belong in the poll. What kind of retrarded poll is this.

JPS,

Outstanding analysis. However, I am offended by your insinuation that I put Daniel on the list because of his looks. If I were putting guys on there because they look good, obviously I would have put the great Patrik Antonius on the poll and maybe that Nick TheTakeover kid. However, this poll is not about the best looking poker players. It is about the greats of all-time in tournament poker.

Also, to those of you trying to be funny suggesting all these stupid names that are in no way anywhere close to the level of the guys in the poll, please go troll somewhere else, thanks.

All,

Results update.

Looks like Stu Ungar is the concensus pick right now with Phil Hellmuth in second place. Very tight race now to round out the top five between Daniel N, Doyle Brunson, and the great young phenom Jeff Madsen.

Interesting choices 2+2, did anyone consider the fact that Phil Helmuth has never beat a tournament before with a field the size that is as big as many of this seasons super satellites.

El D,

A lot of times I am not attracted to the best looking person in a room. I agree that Patrick Antonius is the best looking man in poker, but some people are attracted to a more effeminate type. I thought that was you. I am sorry for my mistake.
