I completely agree. And really, to publicly boo-hoo about it afterwards? C'mon man, have a little self-respect.

Negreanu: Yes

Interviewer: 350 million dollars?

Negreanu: No. 350 million FPPs. The ones the U.S. players couldn't cash out were transferred to me.

Interviewer: Were you actually playing 1/3 at Aria?

Negreanu: I needed a win.

Interviewer: You ignored a fan during a conversation with Barry Greenstein then left in haste, what was that about?

Negreanu: Had my reasons, screw the fanboy.

Interviewer: No, I mean what was the conversation about?

Negreanu: Oh, Barry said Phil Ivey called and told him to tell me "to scoop my ho and take my cheap 1/3 playin' @$$ back to the strip". Else he'd send Big Tony in for the choke hold.
C- at absolute best

1. If you ever see me ignoring someone who wants a picture or autograph, except for me needing to finish a hand I'm playing, it's because I'm oblivious to the situation. This is the third time I have read about me ignoring someone, and I never have done it intentionally. I've never seen Daniel do it either, so I assume he was oblivious also. He has a better excuse than I have, because he was drinking. My only excuse is I'm getting older! (Sorry also about driving slowly in the left lane with my turn signal on.)

2. Daniel has more money than I do, certainly helped by the fact that he has become the face of PokerStars.

3. I didn't know that girl was his girlfriend, and actually there were two girls sitting behind him when I showed up. (Known player's girlfriends, net worth, and personalities are often very different on NVG than in real life.)

QFT. Usually DN is VERY approachable. +1000 on Scotty.

OP, I'm not doubting your story. It's just sounds like you caught DN at a bad time. Usually he's not like that.

OP should have asked Negreanu for his thoughts on the no-talking-about-hands rule at the WSOP.

I sincerely doubt that his insight of both worlds rivals that of Maximose, though.

Can confirm OPs general story because a very similar thing happened to me.

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.
