I dont think this is related to the challenge tbh, seems like hes just playing online for a bit while he is over in Canada for some MTT series or w/e. Why he is playing so unbelievable tight is the real confusion

Odds the "trick up his sleeve" is kanu/ike ghosting him?

It's probably within his best interests to play tight. There will probably be a lot of people spewing to him for no apparent reason like our friend above

Seems like 10/9/6 is the perfect style against guys like you.

Yeah, you made his style work man. Hope DN plays more so we can see if he can adapt to other styles too...

Hand 3 is relatively standard. Not if the opponent is 10/9, but playing 10/9 is not even close to the correct response to these plays. I would bet against dn winning at 200nl 6m zoom playing 10/9 though.

Seems more likely that he just has some clause in his Stars contract that says he must play 1,000 hands online every year or something for publicity purposes.

200NL seems like a pretty weird choice if you were actually trying to practice or warm up for 5kNL.

I wasnt, it's not a big deal ofc. Just mentioned it cause I remember railing your tables when I was starting out and they seemed like so much fun, chat was going nuts, sick hands all the time etc. You seemed a bit more focused the other day which is weird considering it's $1/$2?

Anyway thank you for answering, that was probably the least annoyed I've ever been at losing 3 stacks to the same guy ever. You're awesome keep it up!

I answered to Zach because he's the only one that actually plays msnl games on stars. To all the other genuises that get their dicks hard commenting hands on 2+2 but likely cant beat 25nl or their local 2/5 game, thank you for your opinions.

Play money (relative to Daniel's roll) seems like a pretty good place to learn how to use a HUD.

Competent 10nl players don't give 10/9/6 that much action.

That happens in multiple ways, with either mediocre regs taking shots, and/or me being able to get people to play me in a 6max game. That would actually be really great for the regs. I don't think it's unfair for me to start a game with one fish and fill the rest of the seats with all regs. It's the same environment they almost exclusively play in, so I feel that I should have that right without having to seat script. Me being forced to sit at a table, then instantly face the top 5 in the world with no chance of ever playing against one weaker player, isn't at all something I believe I could successfully do with "two weeks of study" and it was never my intention. I would most certainly look to recruit more players to these games, possibly in a ZOOM format or standard.

If I could picka fish/sucker/my friend to play with/to chip dump to me, then I can guarantee that I could be the winnigest player in a six max table with galfond, haxton, jungleman etc taking up the rest of the seats

I obvs suck at thee pokers....pretty sure that doesn't need to be said

Thank you for your opinion, you can get back to breaking even at 25nl or your local 2/5 game now

Competent 2p2ers don't expect him to be playing 10/9/6.

Oh cool, thanks. Also, thanks for not telling me to dine on a hot dog shaped body part for my question.

I was half expecting to get some troll responses.

What would Phil Galfond's stats be? I once heard that he has the most balanced stats in poker from some one.
