Rodney Morris type, quick, accurate. Nothing like watching people get beat quick. Its even a nice drill to use, shooting quickly, you must get on quickly and I think this helps your aim in the long run. Helps to be a pretty good player. Not a good drill for average joes.

Steve Mizerak - his CB moved like it was like a sailboat going across a lake on a calm day

Mizerak playing pool is a thing of beauty.

He's like the real-life Minnesota Fats from The Hustler:

"Look at the way he moves, like a dancer...And that stroke, it's like he's playin' a violin or somethin'."

Honestly, some players are kind of boring. Sort of robotic.

My vote goes to Keith McCready. He's animated. He talks to the audience. You can tell by the way he moves around the table that he loves pool and is excited to be playing--can't wait to get to the next shot...that after all these years, he still has fun playing.

Yang Ching Shun - never know when he will get a crazy jump shot in and get shape on the next shot. he also makes some ridiculous shots

Efren Reyes - creative and never know what he's gonna do. no need to say more.

Earl Strickland - when he is feeling it, he makes 9 ball look like the easiest game in the world
 
Depends on the game

1P- Bugs Rucker,Scott Frost,Shannon Daulton
9b-Corey Duel,Kid Delicious,SVB
14:1-John Scmidt

This list can go on forever,just too many to name, Sometimes it doesn't matter who's playing, just watching two masters of the game doing their thing can be more than entertaining.
 
Earl, Buddy, Efren, Kiefer, SVB(killing mika) and Alex not just for the fun of it but also the smooth never ending runouts. Pure horsepower--Leonard
 
Since all of my favorites have been named, I will add one that hasn't: Jasmin Ouschan. She is awesome, always learn watching her. And she's got a great attitude.
 
Earl was my favorite player to watch for years, but after some of his antics at the US Open the last couple of years I don't get as excited to watch him anymore. The match he played against CJ Wiley at the Open a couple of years ago was it for me. I waited all day to watch a classic Earl vs CJ match and Earl was terrible in that match. He kept staring at the floor and acted like he couldn't care less about being there. When he's on he's exciting, but you don't know which Earl is going to show up the last couple of years.

Shane and Efren are my favorite players to watch play and i'd pick Shane as my number one pick and Efren a close second.......
