STU Ungar was the greatest player of all time, and Phil ivey etc take second place to him.

how many wsops did Chip win? none, and i saw phil ivey go out first day in a recent tourney, hes not as good as people think he is, hes inconsistent at times but has a good B-game, hes nothing compared to Stuey, theres a reason why Stu ungar is a total legend, find out more about him m8, i agree that Chip reese was an Amazing player, no doubt about that, but remeber what Doyle Brunson said about Stuey, he said Stuey was the Winningest player he ever saw. Enough said.

Why the hell wasn't anybody helping him while he was alive? Who would give a known drug addict 25,000 dollars? His friends were using him for his talent and didn't give a shit about him.

I LOL at everyone comparing him to Ivey and Dwan. The game changed a lot since he played. A lot. It got a lot tougher to win tournaments with a huge player pool and all the smart kids around. Ivey and Dwan will do fine against him I think.

Ive got my edge back. Thx to some stu study...

I still say they need to make another movie about stuey but more on his talent opposed to his short comings!

His death was a conspiracy. He was taken out by other pros to increase their winnings. I know this because I'm Doyle's second stepcousin in law.

Naturally there are those who come close to Stu as poker players. Just as there are boxers who come close to Ali, or basketball players who come close to Jordan. However, regardless of how close they get , I believe that Stu is still the best ever. If you had him play each potential challenger for an extended period of time, (so that there is no luck factor to speak of) I believe he would come out on top overall.

@sportsfever420 Very well said Sportsfever420, at last someone who appreciates true talent and gives Stuey his due credit, Stuey was AMAZING!

This is an alright example of who Stu was and what he did, but it does not come close to showcasing his incredible abilities. I would suggest anybody doubting him to find some more detailed videos that describe how he could soul-read everyone, how he was banned from playing BJ at most casinos because he would always win so much, how he would walk down the street handing out $100 bills etc... Pretty interesting stuff and amazing man, to say the least.
