Coren's been all over the box this year, saw her on stuff like Question Time, Have I Got News for You and of course Only Connect. In this and in articles in national newspapers she gets poker references in. Clear winner in that category for exposure in regular media and coz she's pleasant to look at and not too crazy, serves as a positive ambassador.

Obv I voted for tikay though Roll Eyes

Not sure why the negativity to poker awards, unless it just means any awards are pointless? Just like Football awards or the Oscars it is a celebration of success and for any winner of an award its normally something to be proud of. (Obv there are some stupid awards such as best bum of the year)
I have just voted for Flushy and hope he wins.

There are separate categories for cash and tournament players

In fairness the best cash and best tourney player categories have both online and live players in them.

I see your point about the online category and it isnt a perfect set of awards, but where does one draw the line? Should there be a best online SNG category or even a best double or nothing award?

Awards like this are never meant to be serious, I doubt any player nominated will be shitting themselves with nerves the night before or bragging about winning for years to come. These things are supposed to be a bit of fun and giving a pat on the back to players/staff/forums who have done well for the Brits this last 12 months.

Even if poker awards weren't pointless., How exactly can you choose between, say, Grundy and Ashby for cash player of the year?

Amount won?  Amount won/perhand? Most hands played? Whose haircut you like best?

It is so ridiculously subjective you might as well just ask "Which cash game player do you like the most?"

And as for Forum of the Year, that is so ridiculous I'm not even going to waste my time on it.

Not naming names but in the cash category at least half for certain and probably the majority have had a losing year in cash Smiley

Which is the equivalent of nominating me for live tournament success

And poker awards are definitely a waste of time. If someone has won 2m online in cash why the hell would they want a trophy
