Use this thread to discuss the current members of the IPWOF and suggest people for induction!

I suggest Chris Moorman for his consistency and longevity online. A true dedicated pro.

apestyles for longevity as a MTT crusher

Scott Wilson from paradise poker

Izmet fekali

Prahlad friedman

Moneymaker

Tournies (I don't know SNGs very well, some guys like Skaiwalkurr or some other insane SNG grinder might be worth a nomination)

Would add these cash players if you're looking at pure impact on the economy and/or people who have a bit of shadiness:

Guy Laliberte (impact on economy)
Gus Hansen (impact on economy)
scout326/scout315 (impact on economy)
Brian Hastings (2x shadiness)
Mohamad Kowssarie (possible super shadiness)

Gus Hansen has to be in, right?

Phil Ivey
Phil Galfond
Moorman
DURRR has gotta be in there right
Isildur

If you want to keep it pure, I would not add Hastings. Or at least put an asterisk next to his name. That goes for the ones who teamed with him against Blom back in the day.

Tom Dwan
Isildur1

Ruth Parasol. Founder of Partygaming.

Anurag Dik****.

Former boss of Partygaming. Around before Pokerstars. Took the fall back in 2008. Cool name.

You guys are crazy with all these no-name nobodys.

Clearly this wall of fame needs the greatest, most famous player of them all. The legendary:

Tuff Fish.

I put this on the Show thread before noticing this thread but what about inducting anyone who wins the Pokercast game 3 times into the wall? It would be easy to keep track, just post each winner on this thread.

What about the twitchers? Jason Summerville and Jamie Staples, notably for popularizing the idea of the twitch pro celebrity.

And of course StickyRice1 for being the first known whale to stream himself playing mid/high stakes online and being a degenerate.

Grimstarr.

+1. I'm envious of everyone that is just about to discover who this is.

These guys should probably get in due to their therom contributions.


Captzeebo
Clarkmeister
BelugaWhale


And Sklansky for the obvious reason.

I nominate DERB

Liking this one...

I know that we're supposed to be avoiding villains...but can't we have Howard Lederer on the wall of fame? Perhaps on a dartboard? Or maybe just propped up against the wall on the floor?

Is this Doyle?

Maybe not one of the best known players anymore, but lil_holdem was a beast in the early days and apparently met an all too early demise recently

I would like to make a player suggestion based on play or long career online but I want to put my suggestion to see Chris Moneymaker on to the wall of fame. How different would this whole poker online look if he didn't win his way in to the main online and then the rest is history as they say.

I second erik123, I would argue he was the first internet pokers superstar. Prahlad Friedman was maybe the 2nd and should also be nominated.

Also, Taylor Caby, basically created an industry.
