Erik Seidel has been a top player for a long time. He is an old-timer who has been able to adapt his game to the new breed of poker players (young and aggressive).

I voted for Seidel as well. He's been able to remain relevant in a game where all the great players are young.

Since Fedor Holz isn't in the list, I will go with KidPoker as well. :D

Fedor's not bad for a retired guy. :)

I like Daniel as well, but I had to vote for Seidel.

Daniel Negreanu

For me, Daniel Negreanu is an example of how to behave at the table and how a good poker player should play.

Cannot pass thru. He is alive, not such many others. And successful of cause, but his charisma is more than his success.

I know they're not on the list but my favorites are Chris Ferguson and Adam Cunningham who are more academic but have both done very well. In my opinion Daniel Negreanu is an outstanding player who's very social and is fun to watch. Unfortunately, I just don't have those attributes so I like and appreciate the more theoretical approach.

Man. What a great question. Best tourney player right now I'd say Kid Poker. He is the best I've ever seen besides Stu Unger. Cash games. I gotta go with either Tom Dwan or Phil Ivey.

I like the way Erik Seidel plays in tournaments. And Daniel Negreanu is just a special player.

Kid Poker (Daniel N.) Your opinion please?
Click to expand...

Of the proposed candidates Daniel Negreanu personally for me is number one. But in the list I would include one more famous but already virtually forgotten player - Isildur, who proved that a talented person is talented in everything, and won several years ago 2 stingy tournaments in a row for PokerStars, including MainInvent.

I agree with you. I really like the game of Eric Seidel and the behavior at the poker table. Not that Phil Hellmuth ...
