Considered mentioning him. Though I don't if he's entertaining or if he makes me sick.

Matusow does go over the line. But he stops after
he realizes it. Like in the main event, he tried
to apologize to Raymer.

I guess the question should be "are there pros you
would go out of your way to watch on TV?" Like
many refuse to watch the WPT. If the right mix
of players made the final table, would that WPT
telecast be worth watching?

JC Tran, he's not exciting but he has a good personality for TV.

Are there any others worthy to be included?

I'll have to give this some more thought, but one thing strikes me. How come no women have been mentioned?

I would start with Jennifer Tilly. She's attractvie, which isn't a bad thing. But more than that, as a fairly new player, it's just fun to watch her.

It's new and exciting to her, a big change from her acting career, and she's like a kid in a candy store, serious about being better, but at the same time, you can tell she's having a great time, and that she's just happy to be there.

Another in Jennifer Harmon. I guess it's a combination of her success in what it still mainly a man's world, and that she and her husband can both succeed at poker and make the marriage work.

Besides all that, how can you not root for someone who has gone through a kidney transplant, conducting herself with grace as a player, and from what I know, as a person, the entire time.

She is flat out insprirational, and I'm rooting for her every time she plays.
