It depends on a few things. What is it that you're looking for in a streamer?
What type of game(s)?
What type of stakes?

I have a few favorites but each is very much different than the other.

I'd recommend Lex. He gives valuable information and he's got good sense of humor.

I used to follow some players on "Twitch" Lex Veldhuis was one of my favourite players and Benjamin Spragg (Spraggy) there are also a lot of Team pokerstars Players who regularly stream live games from Micro stakes to High buy-ins, also not only Texas Holdem but one player who specialised in Mixed games formats like Horse, Razz, and many more!

Joe Ingram Joe Ingram's long-form podcasts can cover just about any topic. For poker, he became his own Joe Rogan.

I don't watch streams because I don't have time for that. For me is enough to play on Pokerstars one or two evenings for 4-5 hours each.

Noone . I can't say thee is one who is good . I have watched some but I am not satisfied , they have not helped me in my game . I wonder if there is SB to claim that he has been helped a lot somehow by a streamer poker player . Cause streamers play Recklessly with bonus money and gifted tickets as ambassadors , showing that poker is funny to play , not talking a lot for their losses . Many of them if they are not in the red zone a lot , they are at the best case break even at the long run . But if you are a pro and at the best case you break even , if that's the best you can show that's miserable .

There are lots of good streamers, but it depends on what you are looking for.
I watch some streamers because they are funny or entertaining. I watch some because they are informative. And then I watch a lot of others because they give free entries into tournaments.
Give us a better idea of what you are looking for and we can make better recommendations for you.

This is definitely 'partially' true. You'll notice that some of the very popular streamers also keep their stats. blocked so you can't even check to see if they're a winning player or not (or how well they're doing... or not). BUT there are others who do leave their stats. open & available for all to see and you can check to see exactly how much money they've won at any given moment in their streams (for the day, month, year and even for Lifetime!).

I was watching Bert Stevens for awhile (when my other favorites weren't playing) and noticed that he was actually on a large downswing prior to hitting his recent huge score (he's had many others but I am referring to the most recent one). He was minus -$460,000 across the sites he was playing on... but a massive score changed that around quickly and prior to that he was already +$3.1 Million in profit.

Lots of mid-stakes grinders are 'winning' players.

Iam a twitch stream user. I look on some streams to get passwords for there freeroll. Especially on 888 they have some streamers and some freerolls. My favorite streamer is Renemastermix i like his attitude and his style to play. He also gives a lots of advices and he has also sometimes a theory stream. So i could learn some poker things and also entertained.

I watch quite a few but for me Lex is the most entertaining and informative plus he is a brilliant player, you can only get better by watching him. I like Charlie C too.
