It's irrelevant if he's better or not.
This is about who's greater, meaning who has achieved more.

That isn't open to opinion, you just look at their event wins and there's your answer.

Exactly this. Thats why I created this poll.
I would still say that playing to a higher level/peak level is obviously a greatness factor and plays a big part.
But so does achievements.

Smart man SnookerFan
But it's a poll cause not everyone sees achievements as the main criteria for determining greatness. Plus many don't understand the difference between being the best and being the greatest.
