My friend Max suggested that I write a column suggesting the “perfect poker player” by using skills of certain players to form a composite – here is my suggestion.
• The experience and wisdom of Texas Dolly Brunson.
• The math skills of Jesus Ferguson.
• The poker face of Sammy Farha.
• The reading skills and steely nerve of Daniel Negraneu.
• The patience and table image of J Harmon.
• The heart of Eli Elezra.
• The age of Tom Dwan.
• The bankroll of Warren Buffet.
• The perfect poker player, me, if I had all the above skills.
Now, I would like to get my readers’ opinions. Please e-mail me at Theeiks@aol.com for your vote for which professional poker player best exhibits the following desirable traits:
1. Experience
2. Wisdom
3. Poker Face
4. Nerves
5. Table image
6. Reading Skills
7. Heart
8. Patience
9. Age
10. Bankroll
Feel free to add any traits that you feel are appropriate and the players who best demonstrate those traits.
