Poker The best Poker players in the world

[damian]

I got curious and checked out this link. I wanted to find out what makes a Poker player great and what criterion is used for the ranking. The highest ranked player is Nick Petrangelo and he's made around $4.4M in winnings. Boy, that's quite a sum. Interestingly, this ranking isn't purely based on how much money has been won because the second player has won around $7.5M.

Damian, this is interesting. Like all things that are ranked or scored, I'm sure there's some kind of system set up that measures a bunch of variables (not only winnings) and puts the players in order.
