What would your dream table look like?
Five players I wouldn't mind spending a few hours with:
Doyle Brunson
Dan Negreanu
Phil Laak
Gus Hansen
Mike Sexton
Daniel Negreanu
Scotty Nguyen
Doyle Brunson
Barry Greenstein
Mike Sexton
I'd be out in the 1st 5 minutes lol!
Nguyen would be entertaining. "You call, gonna be all over, baby!"
As far as going out early, you can always adopt the Ken Light strategy: post your blinds and refuse to play even good cards. With the PAD blinds, you could last quite a while. I play a regular MTT (six tables) at a private club and I've gone out on the first hand. I had a K-high flush and lost to the nut flush. That's a a hand I'd like to have back. Funny thing about that hand is that another player with with Q-high moved all in behind me. (That was a little insane.) So we wound up splitting the first knocked-out bonus (you get your buy-in returned). In my defense, you do see some whacky stuff with that format because until someone is knocked out, everyone is essentially free rolling.
My dream five for opponents:
- Dan Harrington
- Howard Lederer
- Gus Hansen
- Frankie O'Dell
- Daniel Negreanu
"Fecal gravity. The chain of command defined."
My style though is pretty loose agressive though so I would be out soon. I like to play cards like for example 8 6, or 7 10, and 8 9 suited or not and treat them like premium cards. Im somewhat successful with this style, but I need to start tightening up some. It does however afford me to bluff alot.

Jennifer Leigh one of the best? She's a former low-limit player who hasn't had any real success. Unless you count having a bunch of poker geeks thinking your hot as successful. Might as well put Shannon Elisebeth on the list cause she has a vag.
