Also these internet 'shove and pray' donkeys will NEVER reach the poker levels of the greats: Hellmuth, Ungar, Brunson, and Chan. Once their luck runs out so will their money.

Hellmuth is the greatest NLHE player in the world. No one can refute this. If Daniel ever reaches his level (which is extremely unlikely) then he can "put Hellmuth in his place" but until then he should mind his own business and work on improving his game.
So long as there are people like this around, I know there will always be beatable games.

Re: Negreanu bashes Hellmuth (upcoming PAD cash game) on Mediocre Poker radio/DN v 2eazy

Just caught up on this thread that I hadn't checked in a while and one of the posts making a bunch of sense that sums up everything quite nicely/simply was:

Quote:
This is a joke. Honestly Daniel needs to two table/auto reload, and they should play 10k hands. Those of you who think 2easy is a dog here are literally delusional/dont play heads up nl.
I guess I'm partially to blame for being ignorant of just how clueless most of NVG is about poker theory/strategy. Reason being in NVG there's never any poker strategy talk so it's hard to know just how out of touch with reality some are.
Example of the disparity:
Quote:
Idk if you're being serious, but that's quite the easy call. Anyone with a basic knowledge of HU play snap calls that.
Kind of feels like a different world from the strategy forums in HSNL and MSNL where you'd be hardpressed to find many people defending much of DN's play at all. Given the hands posted in this thread, seen on all seasons of HSP, and some of the logic posted by DN himself... that's more than enough of a sample size to come to some kind of realistic idea of his NLHE cash game abilities compared with how tough the games are in todays games. That is assuming you actually play NLHE in todays games which most of NVG doesn't, thus the reason why the whole debate can't even get anywhere. It does give insight though into who has a clue and what not though. Like this gem here I'm seeing while reading through:

Quote:
WOW!! These are awesome hands I'm learning to play from 2easy!

Let's see, 9c2c are worth a raise, raise.... keep playing...... I WIN!!!

You da bomb 2!
No way to argue with that without tapping the glass as noted here from same poster a few posts down:

Quote:
I'm signing up for cardrunners as we speak.
This thread is not good for poker mainly because even though yes BBV and NVG bustos know about sites like CR.... they are moreso motivated now to check it out from being results oriented and thinking "omg my hero losing to random online turd, how do i learn the magic".

Anyways, Daniel has a long long long long long way to go before he is even worthy of tying Phil Hellmuth's shoes. Don't get me wrong Daniel is great but comparing him to Hellmuth is wrong albeit very comical. The only NLHE players that are close to Hellmuth are Brunson and Chan.

Stop the hating on Hellmuth!!!!

Hellmuth doesn't have to prove anything to anyone as his record speaks for itself. The only way these donkeys beat him is by sucking out on him. They hit miracle after miracle after miracle against him time and time again. He traps them perfect and bang the freaking miracle. So sick!

Fellow poker players should learn how to respect the reigning King of poker. They will never surpass him so why talk trash when their records are not even close to his. Sorry but Ivey, Lederer, Matusow, Negreanu, etc, etc are so far beneath the level of Phil Hellmuth that even if Phil stopped playing today they would never be able to come even close to his record and skills. That is a fact.

2009 is time for #12 and maybe even #13.
what. the. ****.

I would think Daniel is obligated to play the Sunday Million and since he doesn't multi-table....
well, you know.
