There are many poker celebrities that are disliked. Ego plays a big part in one’s success at the poker table, and some of the best players have major ego issues. There are also some players who purposely try to aggravate their opponent, and don’t care one lick what anyone may think of their behavior at the tables.

One of the best aggravators is Tony “G” Guoga. He will humiliate an opponent if he gets the chance, and often talks constantly when he’s in a hand. Mike “The Mouth” Matusow is another disliked player, but recent advertisements where he makes fun of himself has improved his image a lot.

The most hated of them all is the egomaniac-type player that I mentioned earlier. Phil “Poker Brat” Hellmuth is easily the most disliked player. He’s one of the best no-limit tournament players ever, yet he throws tantrums whenever he loses a hand.
