Doug, what happened to your 'other channel' - I was looking forward to some fun content on there...

Wtf

This is seriously impressive

those 9 years were worth the wait

A near 9 year wait for that to be your first message.
I now rightly fear you more than any hitmen Jungle can find.

sick slow roll, man

@Doug

Seems like when you first started streaming and doing videos, you were conservative on sharing your strategy. You wouldn't explain fully what you were doing deep in a big tournament, and would even hide your cards on stream. I also remember vividly one of your homies came over for some big win you had (still HU though), and he said something like "what's our shoving threshhold here, 0.5 big blinds?" I think you were talking about the min amount of EVpush > EVfold. You proceeded to be like "NO NO SHHH WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT ON STREAM HUAHUAHUAH." lol

Since then, you pretty much completely opened up and have very solid strategic advice. I don't think you would have been caught dead using the word "blocker" before, but what changed? I assume you initially had some concern about affecting the ecosystem of poker. I.E. if you tell everyone how to become great, then bad players won't exist! By the same token...informative streams are more popular (obviously).

Maybe you could break it down a little more?

Probably just realised making YT videos is more enjoyable for variance free returns...

$5 million heads-up challenge? These challenges always run smoothly and will definitely get played to completion. Props to Doug for having the balls to offer this, although what are the odds this actually happens?

lol wtf, i don't understantd reasons behind this challenge tbh..

He's not actually proposing a $5M HU challenge...

But he is though....

I don't see reason why Durrr would want to accept the challenge if he is playing in much better games for possibly more money on regular basis. Doug, why not jump in the high stakes and battle with tough regs on stars, plo, mixed games, nlhe 6 max whatever versus Isildur and others if you want to prove a point rather then challenging someone who obv doesnt care about challenges. Doug being drama queen, you have nothing to prove Doug, seems like you are trying too hard to be the most loved and respected, CAN'T FORCE LOVE DOUG lol, not that you are not loved by many...

"I don't think Tom will be willing to play stakes this low." Kekcellent.

I don't really believe this poster is this disconnected from reality. So, I'll just give you a 6/10.

No, I definitely remember that one. Jens Kyllonen's saga. I was glued to that thread for much of it. Perhaps the one I'm thinking of was a related story that got folded up into that thread, which is where I heard it. Or maybe NVG had a cross-post thread to Doug's.

The youtube comments about Durr being better got under Dougs skin. if Durr doesnt accept this challenge Doug will have "proved the haters wrong" and feel satisfied. If durr does accept it Doug will demolish him and also feel satisfied.

Fair enough lol, just call a spade a spade

Well that and he will have won 5 fn million dollars :P

I might be an idiot, but I really can't tell if this is a level or not. I guess Doug spoke with Dwan and made sure he wouldn't accept? It would be max keks if one of Dwan's Asian billionaire friends is willing to stake him for this for the lulz.

It's not a level.

$25/$50 blinds and you play until one of you has it all?

$5 mirrion is a lot.

Not a level, in for 5m if he accepts.
