I'd have to say Sir Daniel Negreanu.

Man's a genuis lol. Always seems pretty calm, smart, collective, and just solid as hell.

I like Hellmuth a lot but he's the opposite of negreanu on the calm part lol still he's a great player who I've learned a lot from. (Animals) lol

And one of my newer favorites is Johnathan Little. Love the site, even though I'm on the free version lol and his drive.
Especially his calmness.

Hello.
My favorite player, no doubt, is Liv Boeree. Her achievements have always struck me. In my opinion she is an absolute professional.

Yea she's pretty amazing. Just listening to her talk she sounds smart like she knows what's up.

Also Idk why I didn't mention Annette Obrestad!

Only player as far as I know to play a whole tournament blind and actually win!

She's amazing!

Daniel Negreanu. He just seems like one of the most genuine guys in poker.

fedor holz

My favorite poker player is Fedor Holz. He was the first poker player I have seen and I really like his style I always see his instagram and I imagine I could have that style life if I become a professional poker player and I also think he is really cool.

I also like liv boree because she is an amazing poker player and besides that she is beatiful and I guess I have a crush on her.

Phil Hellmuth is my favorite player. I have learned a lot about poker from his books and I just like him, because he tells you what he thinks with no philter. He has all the wsop Bracelets. He has won the main event in America and Europe. He can come across as bit of a Jerk, but that is part of his image.

I'm a big fan of readers. I've always been impressed with players who can put their opponents on a hand and act accordingly. We've all seen Daniel Negreanu do it. But I've also been a big fan of David "Chino" Rheem ever since first time I saw him playing a WPT event. I saw him lay down pocket 9s to when someone went all-in pre-flop over the top of his raise. Not only did know exactly where he was in the hand, first putting opponent on A-Q, then amending that read to A-Q suited after a few seconds. He compared both stacks, made the correct assessment that he was ahead, and then decided he wasn't going to flip a coin for 80% of his stack in a spot where I think too many players would have been happy to race for their tournament life. Of course Daniel Negreanu beats him out because of everything else does for the game.

I like Hellmuth and Negreanu very much.
But I'll stick with the classic, Doyle Brunson. [emoji41]

Daniel Negreanu is by far my favorit, because of the entertainment factor. But I think Fedor Holz is the best player, but to boring for my liking.

I’d have to agree with Daniel. He gives back to the poker community as well as donating his time and money. He’s just a good face for the game.

No doubt Daniel is incredibly fun to watch and one of the all time greats. I would also include Erik Seidel. His game is nails and I always enjoy watching him play.

He is definitely one of my favorite players but he has a big weakness.

That doesn't mean he's easy to beat lol. I wouldn't want to play him

But if you can get Hellmuth on tilt he starts making bad decisions.

That being said first you have to get one of the best players in the world on tilt lol
