Is Jovial Gent really a legend? (Hit and running the legends series) Would be nice if Hokie responded.

I know Jovial Gent won a tournament, but i scoped him and he is not a winner at the high stakes HUSNG. It´s a 1600 games sample so maybe not enough to draw a conclusion for the highest stakes games.Why HokieGreg thinks Jovial is such a great player?

He won a bunch of SCOOPs

He won a bunch of SCOOPs recently and he's considered one of the best MTT players in the world.  I also believe he's had some huge success in cash games.He's certainly a larger name with more winnings than even the most popular and winningest husng player (livb), so while not the absolute best HUSNG player, still likely quite a force there and he's the very best anywhere else he plays.It's also quite likely that he's very good at husngs, but probably only plays 5ks vs the best.

Oh, duh, silly me: Jovial was

Oh, duh, silly me: Jovial was 4th in our HUSNG Power Rankings just a few months ago.The panel included guys like h2olga, livb, mersenneary, heybude and more.  While everybody has their opinions, you'd be hard pressed to find a more qualified panel than that, and they ranked him 4th.
