Everyone has their favorite for the list. I would say take the one with the most winnings in games and money and be done with it. Do the same for the follow up The age requirement limits the list. But there has to be one either way

I would opt for Chris Ferguson and Mike Matusow. Ted Forrest and Huck Seed they also have a good opportunity to succeed and to get in Poker Hall Of Fame. I do not think any of these 6 players which have remained will have great chances to won.

I only know about half of them, the rest I have no idea they'd even exist. Would not suprise me if Esfandiari makes it.
probably any of these dozens has the right to be in the hall of the word of poker .... these are all great players ... each is interesting in its own way .... and each has its own favorites in this list .... It will be very interesting to know the result which will be in the end .... I think we will learn everything on this site .... follow the news

I have no idea who Charlie Carrel is and you do not know who some players are. This is not a problem and with the time you can learn about some professional players. I read that it is just the top 10 players but i was referring to this list. They are real players that deserve a place in Poker Hall Of Fame.

They are the pool out of which the initial selected players are going to be choosen into the Hall. Every year there is a different pool of players considered for HOF.

It’s strange that you don’t know great poker players ..... of course I don’t know everyone either .... but I know 6 names from this list .... I know them as great poker players so they absolutely deserve the right to get a seat in the Hall of Fame poker ... You probably are not very closely following the poker world so you do not know these names

I'am suprised you didn't hear about him because he was a really big thing in "News" by turning his 10e in 3,000,000e you can check some of his video which i enjoy watching alot him trying to bust up his bankroll in cash games apsolutely playing amazing. He was even in Pokerstars Championship playing against Daniel and Kevin Hart.
