But as I was trying to get to As I started out saying it was not to long ago I was playing in a $2k/$4k PLO game with a $400 antie this was in a private game and all the years playing poker and I have played with just about every pro. and famous poker player there is, at this game there was 2 famous players and the other players I have never played with they were in there late to young 30's this was the absolute toughest group of players I have ever and remember I been playing for over 40 years now so when i say these young kids were top notch poker players. We played a 15hr session and usually after say 20 hands or so you start to pick up curtain reads,tells or leaks in your opponents that's why it is always important to feel the table out before you get heavily involved and remember the other players are doing the same. Anyways after about 6hrs of playing I still was unable to pick up any type of tells or leaks in these kids, they played poker the purest best I honestly can say I have ever seen not One mistake did they make now playing Omaha its hard to believe I know if i wasn't in the game I would never believe it myself. I hope they don't get mad for name dropping but there were 8 of us playing 2 you already know so no sense of saying there names but the other 5 players there were 3 don't get me wrong the other 2 played flawless also but something about these 3 players stood out Nick Sirio John ''Doeboy'' not sure of his last name but everyone was calling him ''Doeboy'' I asked what his real name was he told me John... and this player who everyone was calling '' Bats '' I believe his first name is Vinny he's only 18yrs old he's well known at Turning Stone Casino where you can be 18yrs old to play , but when he turns 21 and decides to play in any Televised Tournament he will be '' Famous'' quick I have Played with the Likes Of Tom ''Durrrr'' Dwan and other players that were under 21 this kid by far is the best I have seen! So those would be my top 3 that's for sure.. The top 10 is close to being correct now weather or not in that order well maybe.

First this is list is the best poker players not the best ” Online ” Poker Players.

There are so many other Poker player’s that may not be house hold names because they don’t play every Televised Tournament and that is just about the only way to become a ” Famous ” Poker Player.

But I have been playing poker since 1967 played in just about every casino in the U.S. and 100’s more in other Countries believe it or not, and I am a action junky a pure Gambler so I am always on the look out for a high-stakes game either in a casino, a home game, a pool hall, bars social clubs you get the point.

And I must be honest these young phenom players are completely reckless when it comes to money there has been so many times that i cant even count in the last 3 years the poker sessions i played in we were not playing poker we were playing as if we were playing roulette but like i said I am a action junky and always wanting in the biggest games I can find.

But there is a difference between sitting at a poker table and playing poker and sitting a poker table and doing ” flips” for 10k a hand meaning everyone at the table is forced to go all-in pre-flop, I remember the first time i was asked if i was O.K. and if I wanted in This was in a back room in a well known pool hall well being the gambler I am I said bring it, 4 hands later about 2mins later I was stuck 20k now i could have went to Fox woods casino that was only a half hr away and played blackjack for 10k a hand or whatever but it was not like no one put a gun to my head but I’ll never do that again it wasn’t even fun 3 people in that game lost everything they had.

But as I was trying to get to As I started out saying it was not to long ago I was playing in a $2k/$4k PLO game with a $400 antie this was in a private game and all the years playing poker and I have played with just about every pro. and famous poker player there is, at this game there was 2 famous players and the other players I have never played with they were in there late to young 30’s this was the absolute toughest group of players I have ever and remember I been playing for over 40 years now so when i say these young kids were top notch poker players. We played a 15hr session and usually after say 20 hands or so you start to pick up curtain reads,tells or leaks in your opponents that’s why it is always important to feel the table out before you get heavily involved and remember the other players are doing the same.

Anyways after about 6hrs of playing I still was unable to pick up any type of tells or leaks in these kids, they played poker the purest best I honestly can say I have ever seen not One mistake did they make now playing Omaha its hard to believe I know if i wasn’t in the game I would never believe it myself.

I hope they don’t get mad for name dropping but there were 8 of us playing 2 you already know so no sense of saying there names but the other 5 players there were 3 don’t get me wrong the other 2 played flawless also but something about these 3 players stood out

Nick Sirio

John ”Doeboy” not sure of his last name but everyone was calling him ”Doeboy” I asked what his real name was he told me John…

and this player who everyone was calling ” Bats ” I believe his first name is Vinny he’s only 18yrs old he’s well known at Turning Stone Casino where you can be 18yrs old to play , but when he turns 21 and decides to play in any Televised Tournament he will be ” Famous” quick

I have Played with the Likes Of Tom ”Durrrr” Dwan and other players that were under 21 this kid by far is the best I have seen!

So those would be my top 3 that’s for sure..
