JAMIE GOLD!!!! just kidding... guy's a total joke.
I'd say Phil Hellmuth or Daniel Negreanu at present.... probably leaning more towards Negreanu. They are both amazing at reading people and getting them to give away their hand with their table talk. Negreanu is able to do this while making you feel happy and Hellmuth is able to do it by making you hate him so much that you want to make him look stupid (and you end up giving him all your chips in the process)....
All time.... who knows... Doyle is always said to be the best ever, but I honestly haven't considered his play to be that great when I've seen him on TV. He's more about pushing people around with bluffs than reading people - that's my take on him anyway. It might have worked well when barely anyone played poker, but these days there are just too many call stations to play that way... Still he's probably the best poker player of all time... him or that one skinny dude with the black hair that did lots of drugs and died a little while ago (forget his name, but any big poker fan probably knows who i mean).

Phil Hellmuth in my opinion is the best. He is younger then Doyle and Chan, and has won just as many braclets. He may be a Jerk at the table but he can play, unlike Jamie Gold!!lol

There are a lot of them... Doyle Brunson is a legend. Phil Hellmuth has won more money than Doyle but isn't as good as Doyle. Amarillo Slim is a legend. There are too many of them, with many different qualities that makes them who they are. I can't single it to just one.

I'd give my right arm to be able to honestly say it was me, but, alas, as long as Doyle Brunson is alive the best I can hope for is number two
