Roger Moore? Maybe I am out of the loop but how did he end up in there?

Roger Moore is one of the great all time high stakes players. I think he's retired now.

Well the hall of fame joins the Oscars and the Nobel prize as awards no longer based on true merit and high standards. This move cheapens the legitimacy of all other members.

Our esteemed colleague, Gary Wise, is rather wrong in reporting Enright's one final table. I was there and watched. When she got knocked out, she was on a very, very short stack and the size of the antes made certain she would get action. She started as a short stack. One can sit on their chips and hope to move up, if poker is about the money. She was moving in and then walking around dramatically. Everyone including me was cheering for her. She had no realistic chance. Pots where she'd move in and get no calls were dramatic as she walked around.

Jen Harmon has won millions. Annie Duke has won more significant tourneys. Annie Duke has also taken a giant leap forward with her charity tournament and its success.

Many, many posters here on TwoPlusTwo have watched Enright play bad poker at cheap limits. Putting her on the Hall of ?Fame is a joke. They should put something like she represents the limit players who have lost a lot of family money. How about Brandi?? She plays higher than Barbara on sucker's money. She is more famous. If they played head up, I would bet Brandi could beat Barbara Enright.

Wow, what a fantastic idea!

We should induct Sklansky and Brandi as a team.

How can the author the the ultimate poker book of all time (TOP) not be in the Hall of Fame?
