If anyone ever feels like they have too many brain cells, and feel like killing a few off, I'd point them towards Ignite's youtube or twitch channels.

so when was the exact moment dan bilzerians fame took off?

As soon as he whored out twitter.

Wow that **** is bad. Those are the women he keeps around?

There was a 1 hour youtube video of Dan Bilzerian on the Howard Stern show that was removed from youtube. But many sites on the internet still link to it, such as here and here. Is there any other site that has the interview video? It was such a great interview! Shame that it appears lost...

There's a Podcast with Dan where he talks about poker and how he "grinded" his poker days to make millions. Starts talking about poker around 14mins onwards.

Can anyone verify he is telling the truth? He claims he was one of the first to play LAG lol.

This podcast caused a complete **** storm in the uk. The two dudes who did it put up another video defending themselves after they got a barrage of abuse on twitter ect over his comments towards women and so on.

I wasn't going to bother, but I put this on for about 45 minutes while I was doing some other stuff, and aside from pretty much the entire first 14 minutes leading up to the poker (filled with a lot of alpha male misognystic bull****), it wasn't as bad as I expected - especially the poker stuff. Aside from "pioneering LAG", the poker portion seemed pretty plausable.

Fun fact: He also invented weed. And the gun

It's highly likely he's not telling the truth. His father Paul became a multimillionaire and spent time in prison for using illegal methods of insider trading, stock parking, and asset concealment. It's believed Paul has tens of millions stashed in off-shore accounts that weren't recovered by the Feds.

and supposedly his brother Adam was disheartened by the way the government treated his father to the point where he obtained a passport of St. Kitts and Nevis, and renounced his US citizenship where his parents ultimately moved after the dads issues with the us gov.

there's some fishy stuff going on here imo and it feels like this is all related to money their dad likely stashed away years ago. Winning millions from unidentifiable players seems like a convenient way to launder money

Though at this point I’d say Dan B’s brand is profitable. Just obviously he didn’t win anything at poker.

This guy said he made money in college on internet poker, which means he had a source of income during college. Which means he would have to report that to the IRS.

To get the money to even play in super high stakes games he would need to grind up a roll to around $1million or so, in which case he would have had to report that income, seems like if law enforcement asked some questions they could poke holes in his story. Maybe he has made his story fool proof. Poker is a really good way to launder money, to say the least!

I can't imagine why women would like this guy, he is super self absorbed, basically only talks about himself. I guess some do and women are into different kinds of men, I don't understand women though.

blitz crushing pokerstars during the boom simply didn't happen, IMO.

I found it interesting that both Doug Polk and Charlie Carrel were talked about during the podcast but not named. Carrel was on the podcast previously and was the guy they were talking about when discussing if Bilzerians claims were true.

Thank you for the responses. I looked up his dad as another poster previously mentioned and his dad was a Wall Street Robber baron who got away with millions.

This factor increases the chances of Dan not making his money from poker with him potentially being a trust fund baby using the money to build a brand, but still plausible that he may have made some perhaps.

Thank you once again guys, I was just curious as it didn't make sense when he claimed he beat one guy for 54 Million or so and his "come up" seemed so obscure.

The Doug Polk video makes it seem pretty clear Dan B has never played poker at any sort of serious level

The Doug Polk video makes it clear Doug Polk is talking out of his ass.

Pretty sure it’s confirmed by other well known pros Dan played in some massive private games, however no one knows or shares the results

Dan’s cluelessness at every spot makes it pretty obvious he’s never played before.

you misunderestimate the power of roids and money

LOL, nah it's all about money. All the chicks he got around him are there to get that loot, dude would be nothing if he didn't get his daddy's illegal moneys.


It's kinda sad to see to see this loser act like he's actually someone of worth and put on the act for so long. At least the hoes getting paid.... I have to imagine he feels like the biggest loser on Earth, he brings nothing to the table other than an act that is plaaaaaaayed.

It’s not hard to imagine.
He’s decently good looking, tall, muscular, confident, and has cash.

9/10 women want that.

He’s a tiny bit taller than I am, maybe 5”8 but that might be a stretch already.
