WCGRider class the top 10 players of ESLV

This list has obviously nothing scientific, as it is not the result of a vote of several players, but with only one player: Doug "WCGRider" Polk. This is the list that it has drawn up when he spoke to the magazine BluffEurope. It's the best 10 players heads-up Hold'em online ' no limit. Recall that Polk has recently dominated Sauce123 in a duel of 15,000 hands.

As a reminder, Sauce123 is the player to have won the most money online in 2012.

1-Doug 'WCGRider' Polk

"Obviously, I put myself first, otherwise it would not be a list for me. I really think to be the best player in heads up and I do not think that a player could beat me in the long term by giving me constant action. I do think that a player is better than me".

2 - Ike 'luvtheWNBA' Haxton

"The reason why Ike is 2nd is that in my opinion, it is the most complete player in General. It is really good in everything; He has a good sense of adjustment, he has a good sense of the game, it is strong theoretically, it is aggressive, it is brilliant. It is difficult to play. I'd say it's the most complete player and best balanced. "I put favorite versus any other player now."

3 Daniel 'Jungleman12' Cates

"Jungle is third." I believe that if I had to make this list a few months ago, I would have placed lower. On the other hand, lately, he has had very good results against me. He plays the "American street poker". Poker Street... in other words, did not believe you! He you "call down" often with almost nothing. I do good bluffs however 99% of the players, but against Jungle, it will not shift.

I reminds me of a hand I played against him. I 3 - bet and it call. The flop fell something like 6-7-2. I bet, he call. The turn is a K. I bet and he call. The river is a J, I push all-in and he me call with Q9. He also had a missed flush draw. I often set it on a missed draw and I thought to myself that it did not even caller."

4. ben 'Sauce123' Sulsky

"I have Ben 4th and not Jungle. It is still strange because it is difficult to think of two players so opposed style. I must confess that I don't understand yet what he does. If you ask me to write a dissertation on Sauce123 style, I must confess that it fail me several pieces to be able to do so."

5 - Max 'altFC' Altergott

"The last time I played it, I thought he played very well. He plays much better than several players of this limit. For this reason, I place 5th".

6 Alex 'Kanu7' Millar

"If I had done this ranking earlier, I would put above Alex. But, for some reason that I don't know, he doesn't want playing me, even if it is winning lots of money on me. I do not know if it handles badly variance or what, but the fact that he wants more play me lowers its ranking. I think he played very well, but as it is not more open to play other good players, I have choice to place 6th".

7 - Nicholas 'ragen70' Heinecker

"I think that his style is a little different from the others. Most players have a style based on the GTO, but him, his style is different. It attempts to put you in really difficult situations with very strong hands and pushes you to make mistakes. There are certainly several places where it fold too, but it is capable of making the big calls.

Earlier this year, I played a hand against him. On the River, I bet and he had to do a big call. Is it callait, the pot would be 800 big blinds. Finally, it has folde, but wrote to me that he wanted to know my hand. He told me that if I told him my hand, he play me for 6-7 hours at$ 50 / $ 100 later this year otherwise it should me $ 10,000. I told him my hand and we should play our session soon".

8 Tobias 'KTPOKP' Kuder

"It happened on PokerStars last year. It was the big winner on the tables $ 5 / $ 10 up to $ 50 / $ 100 which is very impressive. On the other hand, it is, how to say, the less intelligent of the most intelligent. It is very good, but I do not believe it can go further".

9 and 10 - 'RaúlGonzalez' and 'donthitnrunme'

"The positions are interchangeable. Both players are very strong. They dominate on the tables $ 25 / $50, but when they arrive earlier, they dominate less.

donthitnrunme is perhaps a bit too aggressive and spewy. I believe that RaulGonzalez is stronger and more difficult to play."
