Vanessa Selbst –\u00a0 Most feel she is the top woman player in the world, but I’ll go a step farther and rate her one of the top five players in the world – male or female!\u00a0 Her aggressiveness makes all the pro’s shake in their boots.\u00a0 Her pressure is relentless.\u00a0 Her poker success world-wide has been incredible ($4.5M in earnings). Perhaps more impressive is that even after all this success (by the age of 27), she opted to go back to Yale law school while continuing to play poker when time allows.\u00a0 Trust me, she’ll be tough\u00a0for these guys to deal with in Premier League.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yevgeniy Timoshenko –\u00a0 I love\u00a0his style – both the way he plays and the way he handles himself.\u00a0 He’s always calm, cool, and collected.\u00a0 His success in poker at such a young age\u00a0has to be\u00a0the best in poker history.\u00a0 He won over $2M in tournaments around the world before he\u00a0was old enough\u00a0to even play in the WSOP!\u00a0 And he won the WPT World Championship and became the WPT Player of the\u00a0Year at 21 years of age!\u00a0 He’s\u00a0quiet at the table but will impress you with his play.\u00a0 I also make him the favorite (substantial favorite) to be the best dressed player in the Premier League.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Betrand “Elky” Grospellier \u00a0–\u00a0 From France, this former pro-gamer has transitioned incredibly into the poker world.\u00a0 He’s only one of a few players in the world that have won the Triple Crown of Poker (WSOP, EPT, & WPT titles) and is a former WPT Player of the Year.\u00a0 Simply put, he’s “magnifique” and will be a guy to keep your eye on in the Premier League.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Scott Seiver is an extremely bright guy (graduated from Brown – a prestigious Ivy League school) who has already had tremendous success in his poker career. \u00a0He was successful playing online (nearly $1M in winnings) and has been very impressive in live tournaments (over $4.2M). \u00a0In the past two years, he has won a WSOP bracelet and the Season IX WPT World Championship event at Bellagio and has had some impressive finishes in High Roller events. \u00a0The guy is a force on the green felt!<\/strong><\/p>\n
