Which pro do you consider to be the best?  Could it be one of today's young guns or one of the legends from yesteryear?  Go ahead, tell us who you think it is and why they deserve to be called the best.    Report

I think what really makes Negreanu exceptional is his ability to play post flop.  Not only is his ability to read other players good but his ability to define the texture of the flop as it relates to his own hand compared to his opponents possible hands truely sets him apart from most in todays poker world.    Report

The odd thing about Harrington is that he plays so little poker. It really is just a hobby to him. If he played as much as they other players who play every major tournament, he would be more people's answer to this question.    Report

The key word there is Pro I think.I would go with Ivey because he is the definition of pro.Hellmuth has to be taking out of the equation because of course he is not proffesional! LOL...Doyle Brunson has to rank way up there as well.Alot of people dont think of poker as a sport or as hard but these guys have to spend hours and hours at the table and for a guy that age to be able to do what he does is remarkable.    Report
