Isaac Baron is widely recognized as one of the best tournament and 
cash game players in online poker.  In 2007, Isaac was named the 
CardPlayer Online Player of The Year.  In his poker career, Isaac Baron 
has pocketed more than $3,000,000 in prize money, captured 13 titles, 
and become one of the most well-known online poker players.  The most 
prestigious of Isaac's victories came in the PokerStars Sunday Million, 
Full Tilt $750,000 Guarantee, and PokerStars $200 Rebuy events.  
Although Baron has begun to focus his attentions more on cash games and 
live tournament action, he is still a threat to take down any tournament
 he enters.  A recent European Poker Tour Final Table appearance netted 
Isaac Baron nearly $1,000,000, and solidifies his place as one of the 
best online or live tournament poker players.
Alex AJKHoosier1 Kamberis
With
 over $3,300,000 in career poker winnings, AJKHoosier1 is undeniably on 
the shortlist of best online poker players.  Alex started playing poker 
in 2006 and after a solid start to his career in 2007, he exploded onto 
the poker scene in 2008 with just under 2.8 million dollars in 
tournament winnings.
In 2008, AJKHoosier1 was the CardPlayer 
Online Player of the Year, and has already accrued 122 cashes and 9 
titles in his short career.  As with many of the dominant online poker 
player, Alex has started branching out in live poker tournaments, and 
will certainly be a tough out in any live or online poker tournament he 
enters.
Shaundeeb
Shaun Deeb is the current leader in the 
CardPlayer Online Player of the Year race, and has been one of the top 
online poker players for the past few years.  Deeb recently took down 
the $75,000 Guarantee and has 2nd place finishes in the PokerStars Super
 Tuesday and Full Tilt Poker Sunday Brawl.  In his poker career, Shaun 
Deeb has already accumulated more than 2,000,000 in tournament winnings,
 20 poker titles, and an amazing 120 cashes.  Deeb is not only extremely
 talented, but is known as a poker grinder, reportedly playing 30 
tournaments a day on average.
Annette_15
Annette Obrestad 
has already etched her name into poker history with  a victory at 2007 
World Series of Poker Europe Main Event.  The fact that Annette_15 is 
still not old enough to enter live poker tournaments in the United 
States, makes her $3,400,000 in career poker tournament winnings even 
more impressive.  Annette Obrestad has also famously won a 180 person 
sit n go while only peaking at her cards once.  Among the other 
legendary tales of Annette_15, is that she has turned money won from 
freerolls into millions of dollars without ever making a deposit with an
 online poker site.  Annette_15 has not repeated her earlier tournament 
dominance in the past two year, but the legend will undoubtedly continue
 to grow.
Kevin BeL0WaB0Ve Saul
Kevin BeL0WaB0Ve Saul is 
known as one of the most dominant forces in early online poker 
tournaments.  Kevin Saul parlayed his early online success into a 
$1,3000,000 payout at the 2007 Bellagio Cup and a WPT title.  BeL0WaB0Ve
 and a small group of tournament players began playing 
hyper-aggressively and dominating the online poker tournament circuit a 
couple years ago.  The rest of the online tournament fields were forced 
to change their style of play, and the end-result is that tournament 
players utilize more 3 and 4bet bluffs and have loosened up their 
raising and calling ranges significantly.  BeL0WaB0Ve helped to move 
tournament poker to the next level, and usually busts early or contends 
for the title.  Kevin Saul's dominance at online poker may be 
disappearing, but figures to be a force on the live tournament poker 
scene.
Jon PearlJammer Turner
After a humble beginning to 
his career in 2005 and 2006, Jon PearlJammer Turner has turned into one 
of the best live and online tournament poker players.  PearlJammer has 
over $2,000,000 in career poker winnings, and is currently ranked highly
 in both the live and online Player of The Year Leaderboards.  Jon 
impressed the folks at Full Tilt Poker enough to receive a sponsorship 
deal and is listed in red on the website as Full Tilt Professional.  In 
addition to his 9 career victories, PearlJammer has 138 cashes, 
including two final tables at 2009 World Series of Poker.  Jon is a 
well-rounded player and excels in mixed games as well as No-Limit 
Hold'em.  PearlJammer could be a dual threat for years to come with the 
chance at winning the Player of the Year and Online Player of the Year 
awards.  In 2008, PearlJammer and fellow online studs Eric Rizen Lynch 
and Jon Apestyles Van Fleet released Winning Poker Tournaments One Hand 
at a Time, Volume I, a book on online tournament strategy.
Steve Gboro780 Gross
Gboro780
 is currently the 2nd ranked player in the 2009 CardPlayer Online Player
 of the Year Race.  Gboro780 has quickly ascended to the top of online 
poker world and has nearly $2,000,000 in career poker tournament 
winnings to his name.  The bulk of Steve Gross's money has been won in 
2008 and 2009, with nearly 1 million dollars earned each year.  There 
have been a lot of player in the past five years that have been shooting
 stars and then moved onto great fame and fortune in live tournaments or
 fizzled out completely, but Gboro780 has consistently been one of the 
best online poker players the past couple years.  Gboro780 has 16 wins 
to his name and an astounding 124 career cashes to date.  The sky is the
 limit for this player, and there might just be an online player of the 
year award in his future.
Adam Roothlus Levy
Roothlus 
gained poker popularity at the 2008 World Series of Poker with his deep 
finish in the Main Event and his interactions with the Poker Brat Phil 
Hellmuth.   Adam has nearly $2,000,000 in poker winnings including 112 
cashes and 4 titles to date.  Roothlus has pulled of some of the most 
impressive feats in online poker tournament history with 2 final tables 
in a 5 week period of time and the PokerStars Sunday Millions.  The size
 of the Sunday Millions regularly breaks 5,000 entrants and the only 
tournament comparable in size is the WSOP Main Event, and Roothlus has 
routinely cashed and final tabled some of the biggest tournaments.
JohnnyBax
Cliff JohnnyBax Joseph
One
 of the best known online poker players ever is JohnnyBax.  Early in 
JohnnyBax's career, he was considered one of if not the best poker 
players in online poker tournaments.  Josephy started his online career 
in 2004 and has routinely been ranked atop the online player of the year
 rankings.  Although his attentions have turned to his own poker 
training site, PokerXFactor, JohnnyBax's 2005 World Series of Poker 
bracelet, $2,700,000 in career winnings, and legendary status as one 
online pokers original stars will continue to have him rank as one of 
the legends of the online game.
Darrell Gigabet Dicken
Gigabet
 is arguably the best known online poker player ever.  Gigabet began his
 online career dominating the online tournament fields, before turning 
his attentions to live poker tournaments.  Deep runs in World Series of 
Poker and World Poker Tour Events in the past couple years confirmed 
that his abilities are easily adaptable to live poker as well.  Gigabet 
has won 4 titles, including a WSOP Circuit Event victory and WPT 
Championship.  Between 2005 and 2007, Gigabet dominated the online poker
 scene, but the past couple years has significantly cut back on his 
tournament participation and is no longer a threat to win Online Player 
of the Year awards.  Gigabet is still a legend in the online poker 
community, but should be a live threat in any tournament he participates
 in.
