Howard Lederer,
Dude's old school! No tantrums, showboating, chip tricks, glasses, or iPod.
Plus, he chats, posts, plays low limit, and shows his cards when when he wins a hand.
I played a hand with him a few months ago, when I still played razz. (I'm off it now, 'cause razz hates me.) But anyway, it was a big pot, and he bets on the river. I only got a 9-5 low, so I fold, and save $4. He takes the pot, and flips up a 9-6 low. My first reaction was, "SON OF A B....!!!"
"NH" I say, "I actually had you beat, with a 9-5 low". Then he tells me to always call on the end with any kind of hand, just for the pot odds. That's something I try to do, even in holdem. And it pays off over the long run. |

| write in: Layne Flack, when he is playing you can tell he truely enjoys the game, too many players look like they are being tortured at the table. Also enjoy watching Lederer, Ivey, for comic relief Phil H. and Humberto B. |

| Layne Flak is definitly one of the best. He had a massive temperature on Day 1 of the maine event and he still managed to own everyone around, even with all the orange juice and cold medicine he was on. |

| Hey, if orange juice is anything like oranges, it's quite lucky. Just look at Chan! |

Who's that guy who uses the grapefruit just like Chan, i saw him on T.V once, total rip of Chan's idea. He nips it with his nail and smells it. Get your own gimmick, son...  |

I think you're talking about Brandon Schaefer, whos a damn good NLHE player in his own right...he won an EPT event and came in 2nd in the EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo
anyway, I have 3 favourite Tilters
my #1 fave is John Juanda...not just because his home country is close to mine, but because hes not afraid to put moves on anyone (going all in with 8 5 suited at a NLHE WSOP event...and at the same event going all in in the dark against negreanu)
I like Matusow because hes pure entertainment, which is something that I enjoy watching
I like Ivey because supposedly he has 200 basketball jerseys, and a tradition of mine is to wear a jersey at a table |

Actor James woods brought a grapefruit to the table during his heads up match against Johnny Chan at the National Heads up Championship. HE did it to playfully mock Chan though, doubt he is who you are speaking of. |

| He's just so classy, and when Howard wins, he looks like a guy who has been there before. No jumping around, no laying on the felt. |

James Woods annoys me. He once refered to himself as, "Sooo NOT dead money". Please.
And, is it just me, or does anyone else find it disturbing that more people like Mike Matasow than Jennifer Harmon? JH is so nice, and charming, and MM, well..... |

Exactly BoyNS
Jen H. is a sweetheart. "the mouth" seems like the perfect nickname for MM. For that fact, all the other pros are class acts. Players like MM and Josh A. may be trying to put their opponent on tilt, but I prefer Howard L.'s style. |
