Every month I will be giving my top ten players to watch. These are players that I feel will break through to the next level. This list will change every month however some players may maintain their spot.
The criteria:
1.) No player can have a WPT Main Event Title or WSOP Bracelet.
2.) Players must have a minimum $40,000 in career tournament earnings.

Eric is a member of the famed Mizrachi family. His brothers Michael (Card Player's 2006 player of the year) and Robert have both established themselves as a force in the tournament world with major wins on some of the biggest stages. It's only a matter of time before E-WeE breaks through!
Glyn has found himself deep in many big tournaments, successfully playing against some of the best in the poker world. Glyn can play, there is no question about that. With Glyn, it's not a question of IF he will win, it's a question of WHEN AND HOW MANY times! Keep an eye out for this man!
Frank has already made a big name for himself on the circuit. However, a major win has eluded him thus far. He is very consistent and that is one of the biggest tools necessary to becoming a champion!
Randall was cashing in poker tournaments before poker tournaments were popular. Over the last two years, Randall has 13 cashes in both WSOP and WPT events. Keep an eye on Randall Witt!
If history is anything to go by, you are probably better off not getting involved in pots with someone whose last name is Tran. Angie Tran is no exception. She is a satellite machine and may be the next famous Tran!
Dangerous may be an understatement. Don has been widely regarded as the original "Mr. Circuit" with phenomenal results on the WSOP Circuit trail. Don has the experience and the know how to get it done!
MJ Has gotten so close he could literally smell the money. Finishing 6th in the WSOP Circuit Main Event in Atlantic City was just the beginning for this "young gun". However, versatility may be his key to success- MJ has a great 7-card stud game to go along with his NLH talent!
What does it feel like to go to bed one night with a tournament win at the Bellagio and then wake up the next day and do it all over again? I know one person who can answer this question: Mr. Groundhog Day, himself, Charlie Sewell. Charlie has definitely got game!
Have you ever heard of a poker player by the name of Men "The Master" Nguyen? Do you know he has a brother? Ut is steadily making a name for himself and, if genetics are any thing to go by, it won't be long until his wrists are full of bracelets!
Many people remember Ellix Powers from his final table antics during the 2004 WSOP Limit Hold 'em event. Ellix has taken a lot of flack for that apearance but here's the thing: An Tran, Jim Mcmanus, Johnny "World" Hennigan and Patty Galhager were all at this final table. They are all world class players and Ellix hung with them all the way to the final table. Where there is a will, there is a way. Watch out for Ellix in the future!
