Poker Power Rankings

by
  • Poker Power Rankings from Bluff/ESPN

blff_espn_pwrrnk.jpg has their Live Tournament Power Rankings as the end of July. Your ‘Dead Money’ blogger is intrigued by the Rankings and thought he would show you some of the interesting rankings here. Of course you can see the complete list by clicking the Bluff/ESPN Power Rankings logo above.

The Bluff/ESPN Power Rankings are based on the results of major tournaments over a trailing 24-month period. Qualifying tournaments must have a minimum $5,000 buy-in and at least 100 participants.

Since the Power Rankings are based only on Tournaments the Major Big Cash game players might not be a high as you would think. Their performance and winnings are not taken into consideration for the Rankings.
The top 10 includes:

  1. Bill Elder
  2. Erik Cajelais
  3. Michael Mizarachi
  4. Kathy Leibert
  5. Ted Lawson
  6. John Juanda
  7. Nam Le
  8. Barry Greenstein
  9. Joe Sebok
  10. Kirk Morrison

Quite a family affair with Greenstein and Sebok in the Top 10 and what happens if Sebok overtakes Barry and moves into 8th?

Other names in the top 100.
13. Paul Wasicka
15. Chad Brown
22. Men (The Master) Nguyen
23. Michael Binger

About Just Poker Talk

There’s a lot to learn about poker, much more than the game itself. The last few years are a perfect example of poker’s growth into mainstream American culture - books, movies, video games, television, poker players as celebrities, etc. Along with poker strategy and theory, Just Poker Talk plans to chronicle these happenings because it says something about society, about the state of the world, and, more than anything, we want to know what it all means.
