My point is that he hasn't won a tournament in years, if my research is correct. Every top player has captured one in the last three years I can think of. That's my point.

Lyle Berman Wonder if you can get un-inducted from the Hall Of Fame?

Nice! lol.

Dan Harrington needs to get his act together as well. He hasn't won since 95.

As one poster already pointed out, this:

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/play...?a=r&n=185

should be the end of the discussion. Did you not see the amazing amount of cashes and final tables that he has every year?

Now, I'm not saying that he is the Jack Nicklaus of poker, but do you realize that Nicklaus has most 2nd place finishes in major golf history? The point is that he is good enough to put himself into position over and over again. You can question a play or two from TV finals appearances, but keep in mind that he has to be a world class player to even make all these final tables. You still need a lot of luck (or even the luck to avoid bad luck for several days) in order to win a big tournament.

Wow, what I wouldn't give to be as "bad" as Scotty with all of the wins this guy has had.

Side note, I laughed so hard when someone replied with "Your wrong, Baby!"
