When it comes to the top players and whether the relevant or not anymore I find a interesting aspect of that because let's be fair who here can name off most of the top ten players of all time or who's ranked in the top ten at this time I don't think there's many if any. When i was at the
world series of poker this year i was lucky enough to meet one of the Greatest players of all time #2 on the money list Steven Chadwick. Now why am I Bringing this up? This is about Eric seidel and I know it lot of people will recognize Eric seidel even though he's not as a big name in poker anymore. I'm sure a lot of people here will know who Steven Chadwick is but The thing is you know how many people asked me who the hell I was talking to or when they saw the picture of us together asked the question who's that he is a relevant player in today's poker world and that's what the point of this is. Eric seidel It's not the biggest name in the world out there right now but he's still competitive and does very well where he plays and when he plays. He may not play the high rollers or as many tournaments as many of the younger players but that doesn't mean he's still not one of the best players out there. I sure as hell wouldn't bet against him if he were to make a final table and if he does make one that's great he is also semi retired now due to the new tax laws in the USA so you're not going to see him play as much but he's already made his millions.
Now here's an interesting question when it comes to are players relevant or not. How many of you have heard of this player
Mikita Bodyakovsky. I'm willing to bet there's quite a few who haven't heard of him but yet do you realize he's one of the top four all time cashing players in tournament history. Players can be relevant based on many reasonings and ways so don't just discount a player because he may not be as well known or anything anymore.
