POKER INFO - PROILE - Howard Lederer
 

He is an inspiring player to watch. You cannot help but fall in love with his play style.

I enjoy watching Howard as well. He gives off that "everyman" quality--not real flashy, but extremely smart.

howard "reeks"of class a master technician that is a true gentleman

The Professor is by far my favorite player to watch. He is the thinking man's man - I guess that's what makes him interesting to me. Hopefully Howard will see the final table at 2004's WSoP and take 1st!

Its a joke to watch him try to stare down the best players in the world! He got punk'd in the 2003 WSOP by Paul Darden.

Didja know that Howard used to weigh about 400lb. Fat guys rule at poker.

I'm trying to gain weight to make myself a better player

Who cares how much he used to weigh. He slimmed down, looks good now, and is one of the most famous poker players around. As for FSU1, every player makes mistakes, it's part of the game. He may not read accurate 100% of the time, but I'd say 98% of the time is pretty darn good. Good luck in '04 WSoP, Lederer!

I like when Men The Master Mocked Howard in the world series of poker.

he left college to become a chess player???? Is there money in that?

easily the best player today, at least for tourneys. the guy does not take a hand off, unlike most of us.

Great player one of the best no doubt in my mind Exciting to watch never. But that isnt meant to take away from his ability in no way howard is top notch and always on top of his game in every aspect

I have modeled my poker play after Lederer, and along with reading a few books by mike sklanski and of course supersystem, i am currently just cleaning up at neihborhood and stealing Fed-Ex players money

The professor is pretty fun to watch. He gets unlucky at times by having people draw out on him. But he is the most analytical poker players around.

Tell Howard to bring it! Next time I'm in Vegas, or if he has the guts to come to Ultimate Bet, I'll take him down....

See you on the boat.

I'd rather be broke then have this guys high school life. Great story, Fat Kid gets Rich and Slim.

Lederer has an instructional holdem video out that I bought a few days ago off of [url]www.secretsofholdem.com[/url]. It hasn't come yet, but I'm curious to see what's on it.

The Professor is by far my most favorite to watcg. Howard be the pimp fo sho with his powerful poker essence, and power player reads.

This guy has one of the most uncomfortable stares out there. Great player

Cheating, lying, dishonest, scum bag. None of the pros trust this guy.

I have truly enjoyed watching Howard play and am learning a lot. He is extremely intelligent and a joy to see play limit hold-em. He also adds the element of class and discipline to every tournament that he enters. Keep on doing what you are doing Howard.

I am trying to reach Howard for private lessons for a dear friend. Any ideas how I could reach him to dicuss this proposition?

Howard Lederer is one of the best poker players. I say this because he layed down 10,10. If he called, Paul Darden would have eliminated him, since he had pocket Qs. How does he know what he has? Pocket tens are a good starting hand. Howard is very good.

Quite possibly the best poker player on the planet today. Every decision is well thought out and he is usually bang on. Two time winner on the WPT this year ain't bad.

I LOVE to watch Howard play! He is an incedibly interesting man as is all of his family. Great ability must run in their family. I am reading a book currently by his other sister that people have not heard of Katy and it gives very interesting insight into the play of both Howard and Annie Duke (his other sister for those of you that don't know) and the family they were raised in that makes them who they are today.

I've only recently been watching poker and I've getting the hang of it, but I can still tell what an outstanding player he is. He knows just how to interact with a person to contemplate what they are holding and how to play the hand. I am hoping he does much better than 19th place this year, he deserves it.

Howard Lederer is simply brilliant and it is a pleasure to watch him play. You can almost see the mathematical permutations in his aura when he goes to push in his chips. Smart, sophisticated and highly entertaining!

Wow, I never realized Howard had so many fans out there. That be bangin! It's good to see!Sammers (Lederer family member)

BEST LIMIT TOURNY PLAYER, PERIOD. I love watching this guy heads up, raising on the button every hand. This guy reads people and situations in limit better then any player in the world, in my opinion. If he could master No Limit and Pot Limit like he's master Limit, he'd be the best player in the world. The only weakness I've seen in his game is his ability to read great N.L. players bluffs. I've seen him fold quite a few times when guys push him around and he has decent pre-flop odds, it always seems to keep him a little too tight and with not enough chips near the end of N.L. tourny's to take the whole enchilada. But this guy is a definite class act. Would be nice if he was a little more entertaining, he's about as fun as watching paint dry. Except in heads up limit play, when he seems to frustrate the hell out of his opponents.
