Default Re: where can i find the best pro\'s?

The pros that play at Full Tilt have some kind of deal with FTP. I dont know the exact deal, but Ive talked to Clonie Gowan about it and she and some other give their winnings to charity.

None of the ones Ive played appear to really be playing like they mean it. I busted Clonie several times when I used to play there and it wasnt real tough so I doubt she was playing her "A" game.

The only one who appears to play for keeps is Paul Wolfe.
John Juanda raises like every other hand. Obviosuly he doesnt really play like that.

So I wouldnt use FTP as a way to learn from the pros.

18 tables are probably too many, I'd say 9 or 10 would be more realistic.

Seriously though, where are all the pro's? Online pro's, Huge rich suckers, they have to be playing the smaller stakes. I know the wsop is going on right now, but is there really that few of high stakes players in the world?

Am i not looking at the right time? Is there a site other than UB and Prima skins that has high stakes?

What happened to Spirit Rock? Wasn't he known for the longest time as the best UB player? Is this Mahatma fellow better?

I actually hear that they will occasionally sweat each others hands while discussing over IM. I believe there was a big discussion about it in the limit forum. Cheaters.
