So lol at DP defending his record at $2 NL on 2+2. Can't make this stuff up.

Don't worry about the haters, but man you're setting yourself up for it with this fishy sounding comment. That's kind of how the ecosystem works...

Keep up the great work, enjoying all of your contributions.

Here we go again lel, inb4 "How can teh best in the world not be able to beat fearsome 25NL regs who come down to 2NL to bumhunt him".

You could probably generate a lot of publicity for yourself by calling Doug out on a public forum and starting your own competing challenge where you promise to trash his fish ass. Put this softwarebot wannabe in his place and show him what a real player can do.

Just a bit of advice - Your screenname is pretty great branding, but may I suggest a slight altering to "fishfood69420er?" It'd go really well with the "nostalgia for my 6th grade AIM sn" crowd

Confirmed, would have been a top-tier middle school AIM SN.

im going to assume you forgot your SN was watevs while you were ripping mine lol.

also im not ****, im not saying i am at all.( dont know really where i stand at the bottom, because of degeneracy issues ) but im just saying i had high hopes when he started the bankroll challenge and i am alittle bummed hes not killing it is all im getting at.

Doug's channel on YouTube is great!

When did doug become a nvg mod

I've really been enjoying all the various themes and topics on Doug's youtube channel. Great charisma and good sense of humour. Loved the straight-up analysis of the Rounder's hand and I particularly enjoyed the excitement of the 10K twitch feed.

Great job Doug! Keep the great content coming.

Doug, I enjoyed the recent youtube segment on the 99 hand versus Negreanu. Micro betting in spots like that is something I've been doing a long time and also getting ridiculed from my poker peers.

I do think, however, that you've misjudged Negreanu's range on the turn. Admittedly, I've read his book, and he specifically advocates checking top pair and overpairs in his range in that exact spot (see pages 412ff).

It's just funny that Hellmuth has been doing those small bets for years and always gets laughed at. When Doug does it, it's seen as advanced strategy.

I'm glad that Doug and Fees give PH the respect he should be getting from high level players. The video on the upswing channel about his WSOP results was pretty impressive and I'm glad someone put the work in to show what he's done for all these years.

Hey doug,

thoughts on wilhasha saying you are no longer the best at hunl?

In one of his latest videos (after the HU match with sauce), Doug says that he is rusty and not sure if it is worth the time/energy necessary to put into claiming the crown.

But he's still the best right?

If you watch the video you'll see he pretty much admits that he has work to do if he wants to stay the best which is as good as conceding the throne afaic.

He didn't say he's rusty at HU... just that he has to decide between playing poker and business/growing poker.

otb clearly already #1 hu

Where does wilhasha say that?

4:35 into the video... "I could tell that I was pretty rusty"

Touche

So, Clifs:

I cut my teeth at full ring, got good and built a roll. BF was devastating because I was in a downswing and my money was locked up.

After BF I developed into a HS NLHU specialist. For the past couple of years, nobody wanted to play me a NLHU, so I began to take on pupils and develop their games from the ground up (sidenote: evil empire).

Now, people want to play me again. I had a recent match with Sauce where I realized that I was rusty and if I want to claim the crown there is a lot of work to be done in the lab -- poker is a full time job.

But, I have other stuff I'm trying to do and I feel like I'm at a crossroads: do I dedicate my time/energy into playing? Or, do I dedicate my time/energy into other ventures such as media?

------------------

observation from me: Doug refers to his poker playing career in the past tense a few times in the video -- which indicates which way he wants to go.

Big World full of oportunities for a smart and personable young man like Doug

All I know for sure is he makes me laugh and laugh

.. but not at his play

is the empire lab located in a tanning booth?
