Who have you met at the table?

One of the biggest things I enjoy about poker is the diverse range of people you get to meet.

Who is the most interesting/memorable person you have met on the felt?

Was it your idol? Someone famous? A poker great? A future friend/partner? Or just someone... different?

Not sure, that i have met any interesting person. Just players and poker bots sometimes. You know, famous top players usually plays on high limits, and we are here just the beginners for them and we can,t play the limits, that they play. So, it,s really hard to met any interesting person.

The most interesting people you can meet are experienced players from the Cardschat community. All other famous people play at much higher limits than my bankroll can.

I think thuis also depends on if you're playing "live" poker or in an App/www.

Poker definitely brings a range of people together. In my live Casino game the range is from the good and friendly to the downright plain nasty.

A few of the nasty ones...

Costa, the Romanian debt collector who could quite easily kill you

One or two bouncer types from the nightclubs around Jo'burg (just charming), who moonlight as henchmen/bodyguards .
A guy that used to play professional sports but was banned for match-fixing (Gulam Bodi).
A nice range of charming creepy, dishonest people, that would dig into your pockets and steal your money if they could.

Online is probably worse...

Online I ran into someone who was nice enough to deposit $15 in my account. We were just chatting about rugby, and then he took me out AA over KK. Next thing I know I've got $15.00 from him as a deposit.

That to me is an interesting player.

I once met a sunday million 1st prize winner - on a... 0.25 cent satellite. Have no clue why he was there.
Then I once played a hand with DaWarsaw, a pokerstar on a 0.50/1 $ dollar cash game table.

Those 2 are the most memorable personalities I have played with.

I have met a lot of "Poker Pro's" Moneymaker, Esfandiari, Hellmuth ... Let me stop there, pretty much a lot of the ones you would know. When I say I have met them I mean been at the table with them. I really have not "met" one that I would go out of my way to get to know. In Poker environment the only person that I instantly liked was Norman Chad. I think that is because he gives off a vibe of not being full of himself. When I go to play poker I am not out to make friends, I have enough friends, so I am sure a lot of those "Poker Pro's" I have "met" are nice people but I am just there for the money.
