Talk:Sam Angel (poker player)

I think you should keep the article on Sam Angel. True, he is not as famous as other players from the 1970's like Doyle Brunson and Amarillo Slim but he was an early poker pioneer in the same era, right beside them and others who helped build poker into what it has become today. Also keep in mind that winning bracelets and other prestigious tournaments in those days was not easy just because the fields were much smaller than they are today. Back then nearly all of the players were tough professional players and to win the three tournaments he won (listed in his article), Angel had to defeat very difficult players like Brunson, Slim, and others. markvoMarkvo (talk) 02:51, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
