Favorite Poker Players

With poker all over the television networks, top poker players have become stars in their own right. Everybody has favorites. Let's name just a few.

Daniel Negreanu is one of the most personable players in the pro game. He is best known for his uncanny hand reading skills. He has three WSOP bracelets.

Barry Greenstein is a great ambassador for the game. He is known as the "robin hood of poker" because he donates all of his tournament winnings to charity. He has collected two WSOP bracelets.

Mike "the mouth" Matusow, aptly nicknamed. He taunts and badgers players constantly. He is a well known poker player because of his outrageous mouth, but has two WSOP bracelets to back it up.

Phil Ivey is simply a superb poker player. Five bracelets seem to be the tip of the iceberg for this monster player. His composure, focus, and fearlessness at the tables are unmatched.

Doyle Brunson is one of the most successful WSOP players ever. He has two world titles and ten bracelets. Doyle has been there since the beginning. He has been playing championship level poker since the first WSOP in 1970.

Made even more famous for his role in the movie Rounders, Johnny Chan is one of the best. He almost won three world title in a row. After winning in 1987 and 1988 he got all the way to heads up in 1999. He couldn't beat Phil Hellmuth, and his rein as champ was finally over.

Scotty "win" Nguyen won the 1998 WSOP Main Event. He is a charismatic and well like player. He has a total of 4 WSOP bracelets he can wear.

The current holder of two WSOP records is Phil "the poker brat" Hellmuth. He has a record eleven bracelets, and the distinction of being the youngest winner of the world championship. Phil is even better known for his verbal outbursts at the tables.

You can't leave poker legend Stu Unger off this kind of list. Possibly the best tournament poker player ever, his record is almost statistically impossible. In the 30 or so major ($5,000 and up) events he played in, he won an astounding 10 titles. WOW!!

This is a very incomplete list, but gives you a taste of some of the poker greats that are idolized, or agonized (lol), by the poker world. They're in our living rooms now, and the great poker stars have become part of mainstream culture. The celebrities love poker, and now the poker pros are celebrities.
