how many tournaments has he won? I have heard that many people think he is the worst player to ever win the main event. was the PPT the first tournament he has won since the WSOP?

Who says this? Varkoni I thought held this dubious honor.

I saw it somewhere. it was actually a tie for mcevoy and varkonyi as worst world champs. I think I saw it on RGP maybe a year ago? I don't take rgp too seriously, which I why i'm asking here.

Tom McEvoy has won 3 other events other than his 83 ME victory (83 Limit HE, 86 Razz, 92 Limit Omaha)

Aside from Varkonyi, I hear some fairly unflattering things about Noel Furlong (99 champ)

As for you original question, aside from Varkoni

DN said something about hal fowler (?) and brad daughtery being the worst.

Varkonyi is by FAR the worst.

Nobody else is even close.

McEvoy is a decent player...

And I assume you've watched and analyzed every world champion since the inception of the tournament?

How exactly can you make this statement? I can say that from what I know of the last 12 or so chapions, Varkoni seems to be the worst, but I don't know of all the champions before that time, and I suspect you don't either.

Peace

Him saying Daugherty was a joke. He knows Brad is an excellent player.
