Mother Teresa. After a hard day at the office sowing the arms back onto lepers, she liked nothing more than a bottle of gin and a hand of gin rummy. She was a kick ass poker player to. Being a professional poker player in India doesn?t mean much in financial terms. After all, when you play for match sticks as a kid, you?re still playing for big stakes in comparison to what the average Indian earns.

Mother T, as she liked to be called in poker circles, in reference to her hero from the ?A? team, a certain Mr T, had an advantage though. Most of the people she was playing against had trouble picking up a hand of cards without losing a limb. So she was really a champion by default. Nice lady though apparently. She really knew her boxers also. I think she had a tattoo of Iron Mike somewhere? Although, you?d have had to have been her priest at confession to know where.

Howard Lederer I like. He projects absolutely no emotion whatsoever. Very impressive.

I also like Barry Greenstein. Not that exciting to watch, but he plays a tight game and he gives all of his winnings to charity. Gotta love that.

Raymer plays a mean game of poker. Getting to watch him on the WSOP is a treat. He's very aggressive and seems to have a great head.

John Murphy was also great to watch. Making it to the final table at age 21 is very impressive. He seems to be in total control the whole time he plays.

Doyle Brunson is great. Old timer can still kick some booty.

Marcel is fun to watch. Crazy guy.

Negreau and Men the Master always make me laugh. I enjoy seeing them play.

I don't care for the Mouth Matasou or Hellmuth.

Love Raymer's glasses

Was Harrington making a joke last night or exposing a real tell, I didnt get it?

Also loved how Murphy was sleeping through the first hour or so of poker and lost @$200,000 in blinds!!!!

I think Harrington was making a personal joke to himself. I was of the opinion that he was saying that so other people start looking at Raymer's glasses more. Anything to throw someone off.

I'm looking forward to next week's episode. If you don't already know the final two folks, you will be in for a real treat.

Can't believe I left Harrington off my list. I play similar to him. Fairly tight and just clean up the pots you can.
