ANy website that ranks the top internet tourney players out there and doesn't even have Gigabet in the top 100 is a jopke.

Are there any 2+2ers there? I think SR/Mahatma are missing.

I think a lot of the articles/journals are pretty cool to read. I am not in the MTT loop so I dont know if the rankings are accurate or they are a jopke. I think its a good website though...

Yes. I see a handful just looking at it briefly. Cross-reference that list with the MTT posters and you will see quite a few names: 2005, Sirio11, etc.

How do they know screen names across sites for players?

Not something I want known!

Chatting online advice during play was laughable, IMHO.

Are there other sites with rankings like this?

Hi, this is Cal with PocketFives. I'm a big fan of this forum and thought I'd chime in when I noticed this thread. Hopefully this won't be considered spamming, I'll keep it short. We spend a ton of time observing tournaments and getting to know players. There are many factors that go into who we can and cannot rank, and we try to explain these factors in our FAQ.

You are right about Gigabet, he is clearly one of the best and he will be ranked if we can get his permission to release his names from all the sites. He has recently been on our site discussing an expensive prop bet that he can take down the TLB on Stars on any given month - it made for some very interesting reading.

Actually, a very cool thread.
