The truly over rated are the Evelyn Ng's of the world. Those who have accomplished little, if anything, and get mileage because of their looks and/or personality.

Does anyone know how Ng does in cash games? On the 1st round PPT episode from the Bellagio there was a caption that said she plays poker 5 days a week for 6 hours a day on average.

Ever noticed that none of Ivey's braclets are in No-Limit? Isn't that an interesting fact?

Right now everyone is drinking the Allen Cunningham cool-aid, gotta see where that goes. People are starting to put him just behind Ivey, I never really noticed the guy before this year's WSOP, like to see him prove himself a bit more before I get on the bandwagon.

Ivey's won over 3KK in NLH events worldwide. Throw out his 4th at the WSOP and AC still has won 4.8KK in all tourneys, with 4 bracelets, & 28 WSOP cashes.

BTW, how'd you like to have had this player's career?

I agree with alex, you hit it right on the nose, they all think they are great and it bothers me, they will get whats coming to them in the future though if they are as overrated as we think they are.

I've seen Unknown before!

Guy's got mad skills. He's so good that he finishes in multiple spots in individual tournaments.

I would think that the reason that Harmon at least partially got upset after her horrible beat to Ziedman when she lost her queens full to Corey Ziedman's rivered straight flush was because of how Ziedman treated her after the hand was over. He hit his one outer on her and then enticed her by raising his arms and asking for the crowd to give him an applause. That is what pissed me off about it, just his apparant lack of respect for her by showboatting when obviously, they both had points in the hand where they were dominantly ahead of the other.

wow, people are still posting on this thread? ...some random comments too...weird.

all in all, i think EVERYONE more or less agrees that Evelyn Ng is THE MOST OVERRATED poker player alive. not to mention that she quit poker earlier this year (from one of her interviews it said she had to take a break cuz she was stinking it up and needed to try something else for a while) and tried to make money off of simply marketing herself/looks. terrible.

i don't think she'll be around too long in the poker world with her skills, but who knows.

Is it just me.. or is Sammy Farha the most overrated NLHE player by far?

Did anyone see him playing HSP2?

Seems like he is a spew-tard who just cant fold 'pretty cards'.
