Greg, can I rub your belly for luck

there this losers goes again but whatever, this site for posting your opinion about the player not the poster

emerging player lol i think he may have just emerged fully considering he no1 all time money list and yeh all the personal comments about him and his family prove what a small minded bunch of ignorances u are.in saying that dont think he is a worldclass player but he done it on the day and showed tremendous nerve.

yah I just beat scuba steve in the worlds biggest cash game

I agree with you completly bigbollox!

word

Greg won so many races he knows it all you ppl know it just reminding you guys GREG you suck

No one can say this guy sucks for no one can win and suck but he did get really lucky. I know everyone gets lucky but theirs a big difference between getting luck when you have QQ against KK then when you call off all your money with 99s and bust 10s. Thats the kind of poker Raymer played at times so no one can say that Raymer played mistake free poker. He just didnt get charged for his mistakes.

I heard that a couple of guys tried to mug him in a casino hotel, but he fought them off until security arrived.

yea he went AI on them. Good work Gregory

raymer is a very aggressive player that plays his hands well and could make it to the final table any year

he got lucky as hell to win all the races he won. anyone can win if they win every fucking race they're in. he got lucky, that's it.

Greg did well. I'm sure if I got his luck I still wouldn't have won.However, I do find it amusing how people diss Moneymaker. Based on what I saw of last years tourney he played just as well and perhaps better than Greg Raymer. He also finished second in another tourney several months later, and did well in PL Omaha this past WSOP.Let's give the guy a few years to again make the money at the WSOP before calling him a bust. If he shows up sober this year he has a chance.

Those Sunglassses cost 5 million now :D

anybody who got to the final table is a talented player. i just hate those glasses. theyre not cool. they make him look weak...like he needs them to win. greg, ure not 6 years old...drop the silly shades and just play...you'll do fine.

He's nothing near the greatest player in the world, but he's a damn good player, and is by far the best of the recent amateurs and semi-pros to have won the WSOP Main Event. Let me put it this way...I wouldn't be shocked to see him win another bracelet or 2 at the WSOP (albeit probably not in the Main Event), whereas Moneymaker and Varkonyi's bracelet counts are 99.9% certain to remain at 1 apiece for eternity. I also wouldn't be shocked to see Raymer at least make another final table in the Big One (again, Moneymaker and Varkonyi will never even sniff that company again), since he is a very solid player. Basically a Sklansky disciple with enough sense to loosen up just enough at times to get some action. He looked horrible in the Tournament of Champions, but he was out of his league there. He'll have (and obviously has had) better days, and at the very least he's going to be a competent and profitable member of the tournament circuit for years to come.

greg played well..true he won 99% of the races he was in, and yes he get a lot lucky in doing so..but in order to beat 4000 ppl u need to get a little lucky sometimes...i dont see him doing a whole lot after this...hes a good player, but i think moneymaker is better than him...and we will hear more ambout moneymaker in the future...as for greg i wish him all the best , but i doubt we will see much of him

I Have read some people on this board inadvertantly suggest that Raymer doesn't deserve it because of luck. Luck is an intricate part of the game. The other day I called a "jackal" type players all-in with ace queen of diamonds. You know what he had? 4-6 offsuit. He ended up winning with a pair of fours. Strategy will get you in the to 100. Luck will get you to the final table. Fate determins the winner. (raymor called the allin in the tournament of champions because he read that his opponenthad a low pair in which case he had two over cards which would have been the same as having ace king and 8 9 has more possible straits than ace king. It was a nice read. Best luck to fossilman

In addition Raymer was held up outside of a high stikes casino. Instead of forking over the cash he beat the living crap out of one of the theives and the other one ran away like the dutch boyd that he is. Can you say bad a*s. If you dont beleive me go to google and search raymer and one of the things is the article about this in the paper

Well, he fought them off for a minute or 2, then security scared them away. But yeah, they diddn't take any money from him.

I agree with the posters who realize Fossilman is a solid player...when the old school pros luck out and catch a hand, they seem to act like it was all skill..Poker is a competition, it sure as hell is not a sport...Luck plays a part, but Raymer has been playing high stakes at Foxwoods for years...He knows how to play,,,

Great WSOP David Williams, but a stupid call with a low pair boat. Great Play Greg Raymer!

It was a good call. If you have a full house head to head, you have to go with it. It's the slightly worse hands that kill you in a tourney.

Yes, Raymer won most coin flips they showed on ESPN. But there were hundreds of hands not shown....of course they are gonna show those key coin flip hands, that's good tv. Greg is a very good player and a great poker "thinker". He is highly respected on the 2Plus2 poker forums and has been for a long time, before he won the WSOP. I definitely expect to see him do well in the future.

Good player, too bad those glasses make him look like a clown and take away from his game.

Raymer is a lowlife loser who got extremely lucky to win. He has no skill whatsoever.

Jimmie, you are a low life loser.

anyone know what it was josh arieh said abut raymer after he busted him at the final table to david williams?

Need to make contact with greg raymer I have Fossils for salev hudson [email]verghudson@verizon.net[/email] help to pass this on to him would be appreciated

He is a THUG!

He is a lucky, who should of never won the main event. He won more coin flips at the final table than i have won in my life.

Greg, you missed your 2pm appointment again.We've been informed you were spotted at McDonalds eating the guy behind the register.

I like Greg...he is an example of how anyone can win the series. He also has class!!! Yes I agree it does take to win, but you were in his shoes do really think he would care what any of us are saying. Great job Greg!! And I wish all the best in future tournaments...thanks for being a roll model.By the way does anyone know where I can get a vat of "pigstew"

I think Greg and Mike the mouth should have a picnic together and then Greg can sit on Mike. Or better yet each of them can rub each down in hot baby oil...and wrestle at Binions.

he is an alright poker player

i am greg. thank you for your nice comments, I am the greatest, and did you know that I ate over $1,000,000 in poker chips that day i won, i was getting hungry, and they looked like potato chips. Oh well, i am not greg obviously, but does anyone know any sites you can buy those glasses besides having to bvid on them like Ebay? please respond if you know, thank you!! out!!

James I think he said something to the effect of" Beat this fat fuck"

Raymer is solid. Nuff said. Way to go Fossilman

get in my belly! i;m sorry that was wrong.

Where did Raymer go to college?
