Pretty obvious question who are the current top pros and who do you root for? My current favorite has to be brad owen (super lame i know) but his approach to the game on and outside the table is really encouraging to mostly rec player.

Maurice Hawkins, so that guy he owes money to can attach his Florida judgment to whatever winnings Maurice cashes at the WSOP or wherever.

Ali Imsirovic and Bryn Kenney

What they're doing now will no longer be considered wrong in 6 years time, at which point they will be called heroes, and future generations of poker players will be scratching their heads looking back to where we are now and realize how those today who publicly castigate them were wrong and unjust.

Dude, what are you on about? Those guys are in the kiddie game down the street compared to the true poker hero: Mike Postle. He is a GOD, plus he operated on the cutting age of poker-related technology. Think back to the first time you saw a HUD. Postle effectively took one look at that and said "hold my beer." Total pioneer.

Now if you're talking about Bryn Kenney's kambo shaman, well, that's another matter. Bryn took one look at Sam Chauhan and said, "No, you hold MY beer."

Tony G of course he has the heart and commitment to the game.

Daniel Cates "Jungleman" because he is a super genius who thinks on another lvl than almost any player I have ever seen in my 20 years of playing poker. He is probably the best player I have ever seen play poker. I like Ike Haxton as well, very intelligent and has a ton of class at the tables.

Jungle and Deeb. Mainly because both are hilarious

paisting, no need to clarify

Divine Brown, no need to clarify.

Pman.

Is Eric persson on pro ? In his own mind he is, so I'll vote for him.

Paisting

Current pros?

Limitless - Relentless in cash games and probably one of the best in the world - super fun on the tables. Just watch both his LIVE at the Bike appearances recently. He's a rising star in live for sure.

Garrett Adelstein - I enjoy his personality in the table and he seems like an overall good dude with a good heart. Also crushes his fields, granted he's playing a lot of weaker players mostly, but I respect it still.

Tony G - Makes any table fun. He brought a ton of banter to the GTO filled table of linus/trueteller/jungleman/etc recently showing how important it is to have someone like him around otherwise it's just super boring. He's just an overall entertaining poker personality that should be in more televised games.

Tom Dwan - I still enjoy seeing Tom Dwan in the tables even though I think he's no where near one of the top pros right now but all his HSP appearances of yesteryear make up for everything.

Thread title makes no sense. Let me punctuate it for you so it makes some grammatic sense.

Who are? You are! Favourite pro's and why!

Patrik and Ivey - Both world class savants

All of the Triton locals are also really fun to watch. Elton making Randy Lew laugh in the booth is pretty great.

I think it makes more sense this way...

Who are you? re: favorite pros. And why?

Johnny "World" Hennigan - The guy shows up and just pillages with a smile on his face while kicking back a few cold ones. Really aint a big deal. He's just that good.

Total crush on Adelstein. No need to explain.

Laszlo Bujtas for being the world sicko.

Berri for being the actual literal GOAT. Like... Actually. God I wish he and Galfond would work it out and play.

edit:
Btw OP, "you're" means "you are"

I never watch streams, when i do, i search in youtube for hellmuth or tonyg because i think they are both hilarious in their own way and by far the most entertaining personalities

In the current turn of events, i will go with Bryn Kenney and everyone in his team since they showed poker is all about team work, something i was missing for a very long time

dnegs- cool dude and friendly, met him couple of times, always smiling

Busquet. Galfond. Cates. Ivey


Heads up bosses are better than everyone else.

Jimmy Fricke: the guy is a freak and a really weird dude. I think we should keep him close.

Not sure if he qualifies because of the present tense in your question, but Gavin Smith. Fun guy.

One of my favorites as well because of his pool career as cornflakes

Berri. Reading that man’s hand histories is what I imagine what watching Mozart compose a symphony was like.
