Re: best pound for pound nation of poker players in the world?
I don't understand the question.
How do you calculate this? Take the nation's weight and divide it by the number of top players? Just another example of the phrase "pound for pound" being overused.

[ QUOTE ] Scotland pwn the unlimited texas hold them, english suck though : ) [/ QUOTE ] Best Scottish unlimited texas hold them player I know... is me. We suck. [/ QUOTE ] Unless you're Tillerman, you don't know many Scottish players. FWIW Tillerman on his own easily puts the Scottish NL economy in the black. England or more specifically London has the worst players in the world by a significant margin.
