Fair play. Give the poll a slating though if you want to. I don't even know why I posted it.
You don't need evidence to vote, however. Nor to answer honestly.

I have noticed that the French are taking a particular pounding and am left wondering if this is poker's political backlash. They appear on a fair few british based sites but I'm imaginging that most people who've voted here play US. Who knows? They won't care what anyone thinks anyway.

Unless they are from the Isle of Crete, which will never die, by the way.

Doyle, TJ, Hellmuth, Ted Forrest, Lederer. They're all better than Devilfish. I'm still not convinced Gus Hanson is as good as his record shows. Colin Montgomery sucks at cards.

There isint much players in scandinavia,actually only Norway and Sweden are part of scandinavia, so Gus Hansen isint from there. And still scandinavians seems to best players everywhere you go. At least the number of fishes in high games is by far lowest.

From what remember worst players come from Greece, I think I have never seen a good player from Greece. But on the other side, they are allways polite, nice and never say anything bad.
So I vote for americans to be worst. Since, some of bad players are also complete morons, acting and talking like retared. And after Greece america must also have the highest fish-ratio. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

This is poker forum, but no, Finland isint part of scandinavia. Sweden and Norway are only real countries in scandinavia, even tho you sometimes hear that Iceland and Finland are part of scandinavia. Denmark definitely not.

Denmark is definitely part of Scandinavia. Scandinavia is Denmark, Norway and Sweden. What we in Sweden call "Norden" ("the nordic countries"?) also includes Finland and Iceland.

Check Merriam-Webster or whatever...
