Favorite pro?

Poker players seem to be worse than the pre-teens you mentioned in terms of those type of responses. Everybody's a comedian. If it is not funny to you, dont get offended. Just dont type LOL.

As far as the question, I like Greenstein, Al Krux, and Ed Miller. Just naming some that were not named even though I like a lot of those that were.

Andy Beal

Gus Hansen - for his quite unique aggressive style, just cant put him on a hand.

Phil Helmuth Jr - always fun to watch when receiving a bad beat. Gives every tilt-clown a hope. lol.

Scotty Nguyen - entertaining player, a fantastic read and a gambler. Got to love that.

Daniel Negreanu - winning character and great poker mind.

Dan Harrington - probably the best tournament-player in the world

Also Barry Greenstein, Chip Reese and Howard Lederer - high limit super-pros.

I just love to watch all of these players in action!



"Overrated" (but still millionaire pros): Brunson, Chan, TJ Cloutier Anni Duke, Steve Zolotow, Dutch Boyd, Brian Haveson and Josh Arieh. Old boys are not up to todays standard of play (TJ can make the poorest plays, see "pokersuperstars") and Brunson may be getting to old. Duke, Boyd, Haveson and Arieh are some of the most overrated players in the circuit I think. Only wish I can get there some day, lol. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I dont understand how you can call Brunson overrated with all the bracelets he has.

My favs are
Negreanu, Ivey, Harrington, and Farha

so basically you're just echoing everything that ESPN has said in the past.

Hey! I'm just answering the question. If you can't respect other people's opinions, you need to find some pre-teen chat room where people actually enjoy this type of juvenile response.

I can respect other people's opinions. I just don't "value" them as much as you apparently do [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Yeah, I guess Doyle winning his tenth bracelet this year shows he is too old and the game has passed him by. Funny you place Dutch Boyd in the "millionaire pro" group since he is neither.
