What has he done to be on this list at all? He plays high stakes cash games thats all. Anyone with alot of money can play high stakes poker. No quality tournament placings whatsoever.

He plays high stakes cash games thats all. Anyone with alot of money can play high stakes poker. No quality tournament placings whatsoever.Pretty LOL imo. Especially the parts about "what has he done" and "anyone with alot of $" The way he made all his $ was by absolutely crushing online cash games and moving up to the very highest stakes possible. He will take on anyone and everyone. Just because some new guy has dominated him the last couple of months, Durrrr has weathered the storm before and will definitely be back. On an interview he stated he is already planning on playing Isildur1 again in the coming weeks. He is resentless and will not back down. Link to post Share on other sites

"OopsMy first statement about him not being on the list at all, was based on the fact everyone else has accomplished many poker feats other than just playing cash games. Such as a combination of quality tourney placings and known as an all-around quality player. With my 2nd reply i agree that if the list is about popularity right now in the poker world put him up there. Link to post Share on other sites

Fluffdog87 2 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I like the idea of ESPN having a list that ppl can debate on. A top 25 list would add a lot more flow from top to bottom month to month for the list I think. Link to post Share on other sites

A top 25 list would add a lot more flow from top to bottom month to month for the list I think.They should have acual players pick top 25 lists, so you get to compare thoughts of people who actually have the most information to make the most educated choices...

Pot Odds RAC 23 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 LOL at having to do well in Tourney play to be considered a top pro. Just because it is the most public and easily tracked statistic doesn't mean it makes you the best.And REALLY LOL at people who think that the only thing between them and the top pros is having a sufficient bankroll.

MaxStPolish 4 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 that's stupid.kobe2odom8>antoniusSee, you gotta remember I'm still a relative fringe player here. So I don't know what people look like and what not. Plus don't blame me, blame Tiger Beat. It's their poll And REALLY LOL at people who think that the only thing between them and the top pros is having a sufficient bankroll.That and a schtick. That's about it though. Right? Right??
