greatwhite 0 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 I know he play the HORSE event. I'm not too sure about anything else though. There was a video with him helping Scott Huff play a limit hold'em SNG. Link to post Share on other sites

WhatArunAA 0 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 is it just me, or is Howard Lederer overrated.. he hasnt done much since the "poker boom". In 2004 his results were amazing.. but they have declined since then and I think that he has fell more into the business opportunities of poker, and until proven otherwise... cant be seen as a top player anymore.

GCP 0 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Howard has made it deep in the main event of the WSOP for three consecutive years. He also has at least one final table in a WPT event that I know of. Link to post Share on other sites
WhatArunAA 0 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 he took 133rd last year in the main event, that is a good accomplishment.. but he is pretty hyped up on TV and I just dont know if hes THAT good Link to post Share on other sites

PillarPAX217 0 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 He's won 2 WPT events and has 2 bracelets...he isn't overrated. He's only played like 10 tourneys this year. He is busy with other projects-Full Tilt, Fox Sports, etc. Link to post Share on other sites
grimtaash 0 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Just because you don't see someone at a televised final table doesn't mean they are not a good player. To say Howard Lederer is not a top player is almost laughable to me. Link to post Share on other sites

To say Howard Lederer is not a top player is almost laughable to me. I never once said anything about TV tables, i'm going by his Hendon Mob numbers.. ... if he only plays 10 tournies a year how can he be a TOP PLAYER? Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't doubt that he also plays a lot of cash games for the majority of his play Link to post Share on other sites

He's probably getting nice money for his commentary and side work with full tilt etc. Link to post Share on other sites

Really.The only thing that counts is tournament poker. How many NLHE tournaments do you need to play to be a TOP PLAYER? Brilliant.Backslider Link to post Share on other sites

PokerKnight55 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Howard is living every poker players dream, making money from it with out actually playing much. Link to post Share on other sites
cosmodave 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 he did take like 8-10 mil from andy beal a few years ago when beal was mowing down everyone else. Link to post Share on other sites
TB17 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 he did take like 8-10 mil from andy beal a few years ago when beal was mowing down everyone else.No. The corporation won.Saying Howard isn't a top player because he doesnt enter a lot of golf tournaments is like saying Vijay Singh isn't a top golfer if he enters 5 golf tourneys a year.
