Snamuh 0 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 The first 3 can hardly be considered pros. While they do likely make their living from the game, I doubt they play regularly enough. I could be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites

Ausdoz 0 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 thats bs.We often talk as one about who are the true professionals in this game, as opposed to the 'celebrities' of the game.At the end of the day Alan Ciunningham, Phil Ivey and esfandiari havent won any main event titles. However Jamie Gold and friends have.Jamie Gold, in one tournament took down more cash money than cunningham and most poker players have in a lifetime. He has proven himself and as such i rate him one of the greatest players of all time. He beat 9000! Some players here struggle to beat 900 people and will never ever win a bracelet.That is why Gold, looking through the jealousy is in the top 5 maybe even the second greatest player of all time in my opinion. (Behind alan cunningham who is still the best imo). Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he should MSN Phil Ivey and tell him that Gold is better as well Link to post Share on other sites
