I really like Daniel Negreanu, he provide amazing game and skills are incredible. He is the most complete poker player in the world in my opinion. He is one of the best reader's and one of the best sizing player. Hes online earnings are still on the top!
Good luck Daniel Negreanu, wish you all the best buddy!
I'm sure Phil Helmuth's antics these days are tongue in cheek and done for the viewers,hes like the John McEnroe of poker.
Mike Matusow, because I've seen him crumble in so many spots when he was ahead. To be honest I don't pay attention to pros all that much.
I like Andre Akkari.He knows how to read the opponents cards.
I personally cant stand Phil Hellmuth. He just seems like a weasel, although hes done quite a bit on the tables.
I had the same opinion, thinking that he uses tons of TV time for self promotion. However I have seen a podcast between Doug Polk and PH jr. and I have to say he doesn't seem that "weaselly". He said that it is the crew that makes the show who only let people see when he explodes and curses and calls people names, but they never show when he congratulates someone on winning, or being cool when he wins himself.
On the other hand, I have started to really hate seeing Doug Polk. Too much talk about rake and stuff, not to mention the continuous beef with DNeg is really annoying. It seems to me that he kinda gave up on poker, and is using it only for promotion and expressing some personal beliefs.
Doyle Brunson is by far my least favorite poker player. All of his cheesy clichés have taken a toll on me. "Lucks just the door. Ya gotta shneak in through the winder. That's poker folk."
