Who was the greatest poker player ever?

[mrmajesty]

Stu Ungar. 3 WSOP championships. 3 Super bowl of poker championships. No other player won both events once. Won 10 out of 30 poker tournaments he entered. WSOP main event was only the second NL holdem tournament he ever entered and he won it. He shoulda won 4 but was too intoxicated to show up for the last day of play. Went 16 years inbetween victories. He was the perfect combination of genious and crazy no respect for money gambler. The perfect combo.

The question is did he make $20,000 per month?

For lunch I decided to make a pb & j sandwhich. Had a tough choice on type of jelly, either strawberry or grape. Eventually I decided on the classic grape. It was the first pb & j I had had in 5+ years. It was wonderful.
