Todd Doyle and Ivey.

Why doesn't Todd get that much respect? He seems like hes one of the best.

How Barry places fifth I don't understand... except that people don't know much about the poker world. Last I knew he was still the biggest winner in the biggest game in the world.

Your post would still be irrelevant even if it were true (which it isn't, the sound of things is that Barry lost a good bit in the Big game last year).

Who wins in 13 game mixed rotations has nothing to do with this poll.

I am amazed to be saying this but #1 is Doyle. The man is GOOD.

Uhhh...Still don't understand why Sammy/DN aren't in the poll...Really, all the players who were there in the 3 seasons should be on the poll.

Anyways, I said Forrest, Antonio...And I for some reason cannot remember the other guy I said.

If you were gonna seriously vote for them, then I guess I apologize... but I doubt you were.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why do you doubt? Farha was running HOT in previous seasons, and Negreanu just got outdrawn. Seems your personal bios was affecting this, not fear of cluttering. And also the wording of the poll is unclear at best.

PA, Doyle, Antonio.

Too hard to quantify who's the best. I guess my top 5 would be Ivey, Greenstein, Antonio, PA, Aba though in no particular order.

Still waiting for a PA fan to highlight what plays earned him top spot on the list.

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
Bob Stupak for #1, obviously.

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
HAHAHAHAHAHA..

Bob Stupak is amazing.

He doesn't even know if people are talking to him or not.

I vote Stupak for #1 also.

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
Havent seen much of sbrugby that made me want to vote for him, he is probably a great player though, but so are all of these names. Looked to me like he didnt get much cards to work with this season maybe, loved his four bet with AQo!
The one who has really impressed me is Paul Wasicka actually, regret not voting for him, was hard to find just three.. He played a real solid game, not making any mistakes i think.. i figured he and gold would donk the game up together, but it was Gold and Ramdin who did that..

when the question reads: "Who do you believe are the 3 best NL players to play on High Stakes Poker? " and Antonius is recognized as if not the best, he probably is actually, then easily as one of the top 3 no limit cash games players in the world, it's only natural that he is getting a lot of votes.

Considering PA and sbrugby have routinely beat most of the players on this list in the highest stakes games online...

And yes, they do take 200/400 seriously, even on teh internets.

Yeah, I think Wasicka was kind of this season's Antonio: the guy in over his head, knew everyone was aware of that and therefore wouldn't be expected to get out of line, and then picked a few good spots to use that image in order to make some moves. Not spectacular (and probably not repeatable) but at least he had a gameplan.

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
I could see people voting for Negreanu and Farha. If you're going to make a poll you have to be fair enough to include players - even if they're not your favorites. I'd take Negreanu over a lot of people on that list.

I voted for Greenstein, Booth, and Esfandiari.

Antonio
Booth
Townsend

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
daniel negraneu, Todd brunson and Mimi Tran are the best.

Worst is Antonio Espandiari, this dude should quit poker, he's a fish.

I really can't understand how PA has the most votes. I have nothing against him, but come on... he's hetero, guys.

How many hands did he even play? What was his win %, and more importantly, what superstar plays did he make? What makes him so special?

[/ QUOTE ]

Ban
If u really need to see an amazing superstar play, look up the aussie millions cash game on pokertube him vs. ivey. and this is a trick poll, how could u pick 3 between Ivey, PA, Greenstein, and Doyle?

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
Why is phil ivey getting votes here. His play on HSP was not that great. Yes he is an amazing cash player, but thats not what the poll is asking.

BrandiHawbaked 04-14-2007 02:10 PM

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
I dont see why Espandiari is getting votes, he's an open book, easily read by other players. Jennifer Harman whooped his behind on HSP 3.

Forrest Esfandiary Booth
Choosing only 3 was very tough

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
Patrick Antonius is a God.
Daniel Alaiea (or w/e) was also class in season two, suprised there hasnt been more of a mention for him

+ erm, Cory Zeidman. Worlds best NL Player.

Whitewash 04-16-2007 01:41 AM

Re: Who are the 3 best players to be on HSP?
 
FWIW, I believe Todd Brunson and Brad Booth were the two biggest winners on Season 3 (although no one even won 200K this season).
