Who is your favourite tournament poker player(s)???

Give reasons!

Me. But only when I win the cash.

Dougie.

I will start off.

My favourite tournament poker player is Allen Cunningham.
The reason for this being, his ice cold  cool approach to the game sets a good example of how a poker player should conduct themselves at the table and he has a phenomenal ability to reaad other players and knows when to set a perfect trap

Shannon Elizabeth - figure it out

I know I've said this before but  ;iagree;

Allen is the closest you're going to get (along with Phil Ivey) to someone who plays like a machine.

At its heart, poker is not a game which is decided by the player with the most strengths, but by the player with the fewest weaknesses as in NL poker a single weakness can mean your downfall. I can't find any weakness in Allen's play - you look for something you can use against him but can't really find anything.

My favourite tournament poker player is  James " Chopper " Dempsey

 :hello: ;iagree;  that is word for word what I was going to say. uncanny ;gobsmacked;

My favourite has to be Danny N- the way he can speak for every poker player on the planet, is the font of all knowledge on every subjectand knows just how much to say without overstepping the line is like totally awesome.....dude  ;)

(he is seriously my favourite player despite the above sarcasm because of the way he plays the game- he doesn't need cards to win tournaments even if his style is a little bit Euston like).

Easily my favourite would be the very popular person on blonde at the moment- Daniel Negraneu.

I like the way he interacts with the other players, gets results and isnt american!

I appreciate allen cullingham as a player but i would never want to be him- so lifeless when he plays, i wanna have fun at the table and therefore would put alot of players ahead of him.

I dont want to offend people but i really dont like watching geeky people play poker, no matter how succesful they are.

I will be the 1st to say that "LD" is a great player, just a little sick of his act.

For my money it is Gus Hanson :respect:

This guy is gonna have a big year, knows the game backwards and forwards, takes a lot of shit from other players, just seems to have a steadiness about him that is remarkable. If u think playing like Gus is easy just give it a try ;popcorn;

Class act, great player, student of the game ;envious;

+ he knows a good deal when he sees one.



Seriously, Negreanu or Matusow (no jokes, i think hes great in tourns, but not cash lol)

that is word for word what I was going to say. uncanny ;gobsmacked;

My Favourite Tournament Player has to be Paul Jackson:

It has been said he is a plodder, well i'd be happy to plod and have his results. Never seems to fluster and his timing is usually impeccable. I have been fortunate enough to play against Paul many times, (mainly online) and a few times Live and have to say have always found him to be a perfect gentleman, he is, imo a great ambassador for the game of poker.

 ::) ::)

Dan Negreanu, Allen Cunningham, Gus Hansen, Phil Ivey.

All V diff but incredibly successful + great to watch.



Oh, and obv:

  4h  Kh Nutzzzz

I totally agree... especially when he is on the Big Blind.
there is no easier steal in the world of poker today
 ;flushy;

What about "Chopper Flush" Dave ?

is that cause i am in semi retirement?

never seen so many steals on my bb and sb from utg and utg+1 then only time i could try and defend you had me in a hole

Are we talking about favorite or best ? some people are great to watch some are great to entertain some are great to play againest but with out doubt one of the best is the cry baby himself Phil H

I dont really like Phil H that much, but  ;iagree; :goodpost:

Oh and Allen Cunningham, Phil Ivey and Daniel Negreanu are ok too.

uncanny that's exactly what I was going to write..of course pointing out that Allen, Phil and Daniel combined aren't even half the player that James is.

from what i gather from bb4 madasahatstand is a promising mtt player and claw should not be overlooked as recent sky poker event testify.

 hes even better than that Patrick Antonius guy

excuse me sir, would you mind blowing into this bag....

My favourite tournament poker player is Jennifer Tilley because she has great tits.

 :goodpost:

:) If you got to wsop final table heads up, and it was a choice between her and Raymer, I know who I'd be choosing...

I'd choose Raymer.

If you win you're the world champ, hoorah. If you lose, you're still a millionaire and get involved in all hoomph and swarrah of having a two time day champ of the modern era.

With Tilly, if you win, you're the champ, hoorah. If you lose, you lost to a girl ffs.

Lol...would tilly just check down her Full house heads up aswell??

Joe Hachem

lol I saw that. 'Thought you had pocket Kings'.
She may have made some mistakes and come out with some right old comments, but I think she has great things ahead of her.

love watching tony bloom, top class

Jeff Madsen is different gear... His results speak for himself, WSOP 2006 player of the year and also a big cash in the Borgata WPT not long ago.

Also Michael Mizrachi and JC Tran are big favourites of mine, their timing seems to be second to none.

no mention of James " Chopper " Dempsey.  i presume this is an oversight on your part Ben.

  rotflmfao rotflmfao yeah, I noticed them to ;)

I have a few players I like watching but Danny N and Phil Laak are my top 2 picks.

FYP

Danny N has lost the plot lately
