Default Top 3 players you\'d prefer to never see on TV again

David Grey

He's boring, he rambles, he's a weaktight nit, he is unpleasant to look at, he brings nothing of value to any program he's on, and he appears to be constipated >75% of the time. Whenever he spend a million years squinting his eyes over some completely trivial decision I want to gouge them out.

Sean Sheikhan

Don't know if I spelled it right, don't care. This lowlife clown can barely speak proper English, is unbearably annoying, and he has the maturity level of a 7 year old. So he made it pretty deep in the main event ONCE. Big freaking deal! Now we have to deal with him on every invitational show out there like he's some sort of accomplished and deserving professional? **** that. Keep our beloved programs stocked with real pros please.

Men Nguyen

Aside from his well known crummy demeanor and unethical practices, I could barely stand to look at him during the 2005 USPC with those freakish solitary hairs coming out of his face in all directions. Luck shmuck... shave them strands and look normal for the cameras please.

Honorable mention: Jaime Gold, Mark Seif and Jean Robert Bellande.

What's wrong with Mark Seif and Bobby Bellande? I like them.

For me it'd have to be: Annie Duke, Patty Gallagher (oh my god, she is so scary... she reminds me of planet of the apes), and Tiffany Williamson, because she made me scream at the TV so hard.

Carlos Mortensen. Just looking at him puts me to sleep.

Well, probably, the answer would be one of the WSOP clowns that show up every year like Molina or Nobles, but typically you never have to see them again anyhow being flukes.

Among the pros I'd say:

Erick Lindgren - Nothing wrong with him, he just bores me tremendously. I find neither his play nor his interviews even vaguely interesting. I watch his play with the same enthusiasm I do amateurs I've never seen before.

David Williams - An arrogant over-aggro prick that I could do without. Lately, he's as big a jerk as Arieh and similar guys, but without any of the entertainment appeal.

Mark Seif - Dull and--after listening to his awful commentary on the PPT--extremely annoying.

Others pros I don't care to watch: Chris Bigler, Tom Franklin, Mike Mizrachi, Steve Zolotow, Prahlad Friedman, Gavin Smith, Robert Bellande

Note that this has nothing to do with how they play for the most part. I don't mind watching second-rate players if they're somewhat interesting. Some top solid players like Lindgren, on the other hand, make me want to fall asleep.

1. Tony G because of his mouth.

2. Paul Magriel irks me with that thing he constantly does with his tongue especially when considering his next move.

3. Tom Franklin just look sleazy...with or without his pecker on somebody's back.
