tbf the criteria doesn't say has to be nice guy or particularly well liked.

TB, played highest stakes games for decades, consistently won, wsop bracelet, stood test of time etc can't really see any clear reason for his not being on the list except that people today "don't think he's great at poker" which actually from my sources isn't strictly true, I think he's still considered a very very strong LHE player.

Matasow saying Devilfish did nothing for poker is complete BS, when i meet people who know about my poker background there are only 3 questions you ever get asked...

1) Whats the most you've ever won
2) Did you win overall
3) DID YOU EVER MEET THE DEVILFISH

And this is from people who barely know what hand beats what. I wonder how many Us pro's get asked if they've ever met MIKE THE MOUTH MATASOW??

This, I get asked it all the time from people older than 30 who remember the first run of Late Night Poker.

Anyone who listens to the magic sponge podcast with Rob Beckett and Jimmy Bullard, their last guest was Tony Warner a former Hull keeper who lived next door to the devilfish, goes on to tell a funny story well worth a listen.
