Is Freddy Deeb the best player in the world

[komargo]

I am curious if you guys think that Freddy Deeb is best player in the world now that he has won the 50K Horse Tournament, which is the most prestigious tournament in the world.

No. He's good, very good, but I don't think he's the best in the world.

He isn't the best in the world... I think there was an earlier thread devoted to discussing the best player in the world

But he only won it once so.....I mean someone has to win at least every year

Deeb got skillz. That's a hell of a solid field to plow through and come out on top. Chip Reese gets much respect for his accomplishment last year and I think Freddy deserves equal respect this year. He was by far the short stack with 3 left and scrapped and clawed his way to victory -- give the man his props.

Freddy Deeb is a great player, and deserves all the accolades for winning the HORSE event this yr, but the bast in ther world? Nope. So who is? Oh, Allen Cunningham, Phil Ivey, ChuckTs, the guy who took my $10 last night, or?(insert yer fave here).How 'bout Phil Hellmuth, who has more bracelets than anybody, or Gus Hansen, he's got WPT wins than anyone else. It's a never ending argument.
