I don't know but Ralph Souquet gets my vote.
Most underrated pro player ?

Ralf is definitely not underrated. He has long been acknowledged as one of the best in the game. Rodney may be somewhat underrated. He is usually never considered to win a tournament beforehand but he always seems to place high. I think Rodney can play with anyone right now.
hehe,
i m here with Jay, too--to call Ralf as underrated would be a bit funny. He s top-rated for longer than a decade. If someone would underestimate him.....funny
Rodney Morris perhaps, and i think Dechaine will make his way also. Very strong player-won t take long that his name will be up everywhere imo.

I think you are right in this , though I think Tommy Kennedy would be the most underrated pro. AH COME ON !!
I think Joey's point in naming Ralf as an underrated player is that despite all the praise and accolades he has received over the years, he actually deserves EVEN MORE. Putting it that way, I actually do consider Ralf "underrated". He should be considered as one of the greatest in the history of the game. But as far as the "most" underrated, maybe not.
I think Kiamco is still fairly underrated here in America. I think he plays pretty much on par with the big Pinoy boys, but that one big tournament victory still eludes him.
Tommy kennedy is the most underrated pool player ever!you think some one that has won the u s open would never be underrated,its not like you can get lucky and win the open,and then win in the finals against archer 11 1,come on give the man his due,he is, was an elite player!
Problem was , he didn't win another title after that, iirc ( PBT tourneys ).
Warren Kiamco gets my vote.
I said on here a year ago Mike was the next SVB and most laughed at me. He's not really underrated anymore though. Johnnyt
Agreed! When on, as good as it gets in 9 ball.
I agree with the original post that Souquet is underrated. Though he is recognized as a fantastic and elite player, I think he is among the best that ever played pool, and is rarely cited for it. Still, he is not the most underrated.
A player who seems to garner little attention but impresses the hell out of me whenever I watch him play is Shannon Murphy, so I'll submit him as very underrated.
