As a few others have said, my list of favorite players changes. As I have noted before….one player that I find compelling is Ole Schemion. His schedule seems to have been low key of late but then he'll turn up at a high roller and final table with ease.
The two other players I really like following more recently are Steffen Sontheimer and Jake Schindler - both of them play a really controlled game, seldom if ever making an obvious mistake - very disciplined the both of them.
As for players I genuinely dislike, not really too many as I enjoy 'hate watching' some players like watching bad TV- enjoy some guys taking a beating at the felt.
That said there are a couple I 'object' to. The first being is William Kasouf. People familiar with European events were already aware what a disruptive idiot he was before he made the run in the
wsop. I was glad he got caught stealing. no two ways about it.
Then we have Chris Ferguson. I am not sure how any poker room allows him to play anymore. He bilked tens of millions out of Full Tilt then plead dumb regarding the companies accounting (both his parents are mathematicians and he has a PhD in computer science).
He has never made a sincere apology and made no effort to comfort the thousands of lives he disrupted. The were others involved in the Full Tilt fraud and few paid any real consequences but at least most appeared contrite, embarrassed and ashamed to some degree.
Not Ferguson. The fact he is now showing up at the WSOP playing numerous events leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
