Daniel Negreanu I am disappoint - Page 3 - Poker News

I'd don't like Negreanu at all. There isn't any quality of personality he has that I find appealing, and his poker play is also in no way redeeming for me.

Bearing that in mind, like I would for any celeb. from any sport, I'd give them a pass on a situation like this and realize they like us also have good days and bad days. And the more autograph's you get asked for in a day, the more likely you are to be hoping for a day to just be able to sit and eat, play a game of cards, see a movie etc, w/e, without bother or interruption, to be left alone just like everyone else in the room.

I wish there was some way we could bet on this. I have no clue how much Daniel is worth but I'd life roll and borrow on the under.

I think so but this chick seemed much better looking(even under the blue lights of the rail).

My $0.02, a couple of friends (dudes - so not hot women) ran across DN at the WSOP and they said he was super friendly, took a couple of pictures, and had a short chat.

Common sense would say that these guys are people with their own lives and can't (or don't want to) always drop everything to give a fan a picture. That doesn't make them bad people.

Ya maybe 10mil+ was being too generous. 5mil+ though I could see being a lot more reasonable.

He won't show up at canadian tournaments he's invited too for less than 50k. He talks a lot about helping poker in canada but does nothing.

I'd take the under on that for sure if we had a way to determine this.

beat me to it

He was paid 3 million for a two year contract by steve wynn to be a prop player/ambassador when wynn opened his poker room. He took the money then backed out on the deal because he was losing his ass in the cash games. You're not gonna find this on google and i don't expect you to take my word for it, ask around in vegas.

Here we go again, Negreanus worth multi millions, Phil Iveys worth multi millions, ever heard of leasing, you guys are too naive.
Would you have said FullTilt couldnt raise enough to pay out, pre black friday? No chance!

He's great for the game, makes table talk interesting to listen to on television for both hard core and casual fans, and seems upbeat most of the time.

Best post hahah.

So for my DN is a big doucher, because I friended him on facebook and he just ignored my request

But I am not privileged to see all the people he adds as friends in my facebook news feed. I cry every time I see he adds people and I am not the chosen one. Actually I could give a **** less I just wanted to see pics of his girlfriend and creep his fb profile haha.

from busquet's blog

"One of the dirty little secrets in the poker world is that most professionals, (yes even famous ones) are much more broke than they appear. For example, you might see a player’s headline number of $4 million in tournament earnings but don’t realize that the player in question has been playing tournaments for 8 years and has averaged $300k a year in buy-ins. That comes out to $200k a year profit, which is no doubt a good living, but especially when you consider travel expenses, it’s a much different lifestyle than the headline number suggests."

confirmed busto?

For every 1 person that says something bad theres like 20 that say good things about him.Probably just caught him on a bad day.Also I don't get asking people for a picture especially someone who plays poker for a living but each to their own.
