Default Who's the best 'Amateur turned pro'? Did they deserve it?

I have been wondering which amateur turned pro by winning the Main Even of the WSOP is the best out of them all. Many of my buddies say that none of them deserved to win that coveted bracelet. This is a dispute that I have been having with them for quite some time.

I don't know which is the best personally, but I do think that some of them did get really lucky or else they wouldn't have gotten the title, but that is poker. But then again, some of them did make some really good plays, and some good reads/lay downs. But I would really like to hear what you all think so I could further discuss this with my poker buddies.

And if it's any consolation, who do you think is the best pro?

I think that Scotty Nguyen and Daniel Negreanu are the best at reading people, making good plays, and basically having a good time while playing poker.
