Now that we've seen Darvin Moon in all his queen-high glory, where does he rank among the worst poker players of all time?

Darvin will say he is the worst from that list. You let me know any of those players say they aren't as good as they are. idk why phil and tom are on there but whatever.

And you make it out as if Darvin Moon has tried to become a poker player and failed or something, or has been highly regarded and you are revealing a secret

Darvin Moon won his entry and decided to play against his dads wish of just taking the money because it was a once in a lifetime oppurtunity

He may be one of the worst to make the FT, but the worst of all time title is rediculous, there is a bloke who sits on streets dressed in rags shaking a cup that I walk past every now and again. He sits in the same spot in the city every day, I might assume he is a worse poker player than Darvin Moon, should he also be in the poll?

Lol at saying any of those people are the worst poker player of all time
Not even Guy is the worst poker player of all time

The worst is someone who hasn't even played poker before or something, obviously...

I have zero respect for anyone who doesn't like Darvin. Just cause he is a casual player doesn't warrant people to talk trash about him. He is a blue collar guy who plays for the love of the game. I am happy he got 2nd. He won the most possible without having to be world champion. Congrats Darvin

Darvin handled himself very well at the final table. He may not be a great poker player, but you can't help but respect him and his mindset.

Darvin Moon. . a great guy, a perfect gentleman at the table, and a good sport, but one of the worst players i've ever seen on tv. . Worst player who ever played poker? Def not any of these guys... just go sit at a 2/4 limit game in Atlantic City for about 15 minutes, after watching some of these world champions, you'll start comparing Moon to Ivey.

YOU ALL FAIL AT HYPERBOLE you nits, jesus of course none of these guys are the worst out of everyone in the world, but to say "Who's the worst poker player ever ON TV" sounds ******ed because then the answer would be Jim Pittman or one of those dumbasses on celebrity poker showdown.

I have to say the worst WSOP winner is Jamie Gold he worse than Moon by a mirrion times. All gold did was tell ppl to fold and call so often that they didn't know what to do. How would he have done if he would have just sat there and played poker instead of being an idiot Circus Ring leader. And the worst part about this is all the idiots who tried this for the next year or so and so idiots actually still try it.

So my vote goes to GOLD.

BTW: I hope if I ever get to play in the WSOP I can run like these guys and have everyone on 2p2 calling me a luckbox donk.

Sorry Mrs. Pittman but it was King Jack and it was against a Hellmuth's preflop reraise and everyone knows Hellmuth never reraises preflop in the early levels without a hand that is crushing KJ.

The worst poker player ever is some guy I've never heard about that plays every hand at a $1/$2 table in some casino.

Seriously, whats the point of your thread ? If you want to say "I think Darvin Moon is a poor player", then just say so.
