Adrian Mateos, Daniel negreanu, Phil Evey y Martin kabrhel I really like the way Adrian and Phil read the game and their opponents; it's extraordinary. Even Negreanu does it spectacularly; they're too good. And I also really like Kabrel and Negreanu; their personalities are something else. Kabrel is the kind of guy who can get under anyone's skin.

D Negs, he has shown that he's capable of growing with the game. He sells action to fans without a markup which he could easily justify. He's also Canadian so thats cool too.

Daniel Negreanu was the first professional I saw playing and I admire his strategy.

I'm also going with Daniel Negreanu, I mean DNegs could easily 'retire' and enjoy his time (he was at the top of the earnings leaderboard for a long time and IIRC he's still 2nd ATM), but he just loves the game and he studies/works constantly to adapt and improve to today's styles/strategies/META... his vlogs from wsop are also a great way to promote the game and watch an unfiltered experience (actually there's other great content too and everything is free, mainly on his YT channel- https://www.youtube.com/@dnegspoker ), it's tough to think of another poker legend that did as much as him for poker in general <3

My idol in poker is practically an anti-hero, Stu Ungar, the legend of an eternally winning kid.
