List of champions includes Berland and Forrest

2009-05-12 16:38:07

A countdown of the greatest World Series of Poker (WSOP) champions has continued with the addition of Ted Forrest and Gary Berland to the list.

Bluff Magazine named Forrest as number 16 in its top 40, citing his five bracelet victories.

Forrest is one of the few players to have won a trio of WSOP bracelets in the same year - these coming in 1993, before he took down two events in 2004.

Berland, meanwhile, was named one place higher and has also won five bracelets - all in the space of three years.

He captured his first in 1977 - the same year in which he finished runner-up to Doyle Brunson in the Main Event - before winning a pair in 1978 and repeating the feat the following year.

The countdown is being made to mark the 40th installment of the WSOP and four-time bracelet winner Bobby Baldwin earlier took the number 17 place.
