Favourite British pro?

In a weekend where James Akenhead is flying the British flag in Vegas, I was wondering:

Who is your favourite British pro? 

Personally I love Neil Channing's style - awesome cash game player, decent in tournaments too and a really nice guy with it. He can talk the backside off a donkey, mind. 

Rules: You can't pick Orford or Tikay ;)

    Can't stand Luke Schwarz but the boy has obvious talent

    Sam Trickett for me, tight aggressive the other night on World Poker Open on 5, boy did he wait for his moment!!

    I can't pick a favourite as I love watching so many of them! And I keep thinking of someone else.

    I know ENTERTAINMENT WISE there are some great characters who are enjoyable to watch play, such as John Tabatabai, Luke Schwartz and Josh Tyler is another. These guys usually give the viewer a laugh!

    For me Ramvaswani and Devilfish for the old school and Pras Bansi and James Akenhead for new kids on the block.

    All NI citizens are classed as British by default.  They can opt to switch to Irish if they choose via the Belfast aggreement, or be classed as both.
