Daniel Negreanu I am disappoint - Page 11 - Poker News

Initially, We didn't ask any to take any pictures with anybody we came across because we didn't care enough to have one and it didn't even cross our minds tbh- but then we started to guess which pros would have happily agreed, and which would have brushed us off

Sick prop betting... guess I am the only one that thinks this entire thread is just another level?!?!... whoever took the over probably won about 240 posts ago.

Lots of people in this country drive real nice cars and live in real nice houses and have more debt than most Americans will make in their lifetimes.

I'd bet all that I have that Daniel is worth less than 10 million. I'd actually be less surprised to find out that he is worth less than zero.

Isn't this thread a joke anyway?
I think there was almost identical last year with DN actually responding in it..

Felt Mountain, would you care to join me in a class action lawsuit against Daniel for the emotional distress we both suffered, or would you prefer to sue him directly for the injuries he inflicted to your vagina?

When I approached him at the RIO during a break, he wasn't even playing, just sitting there with a weird expression on his face. When I ask for a pic he very rudely and arrogantly said "Can't you even let me finish first? Get the f**k out of my stall!"

Needless to say I was offended by his language and superior attitude but decided to give him another chance and waited outside the bathroom. But when he comes out, he blows right by me, ignoring his implied promise to take a post-s**t photo with me.

Instead he walks up to his beautiful girlfriend and starts kissing her. Being polite, I of course wait my turn. Only when he's finished do I start to lovingly place my tongue in her mouth. Thats when Daniel ruins the moment by yelling at me again!

He rudely rips my hand off her ass and starts escorting her down the hall away from me, treating me like I'm the a**h**e!

I don't care how famous you think you are, it's clearly rude to treat fans like that. To let him know that I start following them yelling "My taxes pay your salary! My taxes pay your salary!"*

The jerk then forces me to run to keep up with them, and that's when security gets involved. Of course, who do you think they believe, the starstruck out of town fan who just wanted an autograph, a pic, and a kiss, or Mr. Vegas "bigshot"?

Well, Daniel, I'm out now and I'm not going to keep quiet about your arrogant sense of personal space and inordinate pride in your abilities and girlfriend. May you burn in a hell for being so confident and successful.

You prob didn't ask for a pic or autograph because you are more famous than DN

How was making that new movie? I really liked it. obv not as good as always sunny, but solid

It wouldn't surprise me if the Negreanu/Leatherman split was fallout from Black Friday. She probably concluded that she couldn't use Negreanu as a stepping stool to her own fame/success anymore with Pokerstars losing the US broadcast market. She's probably chasing after B list celebs at this point.

i chuckled hard, is there any validity to this post? (not talking about the last sentence)

Posting pictures you took of random poker celebrities you took will only feed the fuel of those who are going to set out to abuse you over this.

Perhaps Daniel will reply however given the level of irrational, immature hatred some posters have expressed in this thread, he is more than justified in not bothering.

Cordially,
ANobleGent

1. half of the assertions in your post are wrong.

2. with regard to #1, were you aware of this / leveling?

3. how old are you?

4. was your answer to any of the two above questions a level?

5. can you please stop using 'Felt Mountain, .... ' as an introducation as well as 'Cordially, ANobleGent' as a signature?

With regard to #5, I honestly believe the majority of users would find it more polite if you quit with that stuff. To that end, you would increase your 'politeness' and more people would think you are a reasonable human being.

In after Barry and before Daniel (whose name's in the OP)

[ ] Shocked

Also, it's cool how the poker cognoscenti are rushing to defend Daniel here, appealing to his general reputation as an approachable, friendly guy. That doesn't change the fact he may have been a dick in this instance. Being oblivious is hardly grounds as a defense for being a dick.

That said, OP sounds like a whining bitch about being turned off from poker b/c of this; Negreanu is hardly relevant in poker anymore, to boot!

Never understood an adult asking someone for an autograph. Get it together, bro. Leave the guy alone.

WTF is OP talking about total BS!
I was there last night Daniel was extremely cordial to the entire room and was very nice of him to say hi to me. It was very late at night 3am and he probably was sidetracked with other things on his mind

He was teaching the woman how to play thats why they were at 1/3 and the table was laughing and having a blast.
DN is probably the best ambassador for Poker and does go out of his way to his fans!
Fyi the 2 woman he was with were smokin!
Time for DN to have an enforcer around him doesnt need this BS
