I like the comparison to an old hag. He might be an ambassador because he is friendly and has been around forever but he is not our hero. He is not our hero. He is not going to save poker. He is a nerdy, ambiguous, annoying petite male. Guys don't want to be him and girls don't want to **** him.

OK, 100% serious.

What does he have to do to beat the regs? (Can you outline some useful strategies please. I would also like to be able to beat 5kNL)

Props to highstakes pros who promptly called DN out on his bull**** that he can't back up. DN got bitchslapped just like he deserved. Props to the REAL best players in the world like Polk, Haxton, Jungle, etc. I'm loving this. Poker world needed to get real about this.

P.S. I'm sure DN's is still the fish's favorite though :P

There are thousands of players who tried to get there by putting in thousands of hours, using the most advanced tools they could find. Young, smart people extremely hungry for success. Out of those thousands of players maybe 10 have been consistently beating those stakes for the past couple of years. Timex was extremely frustrated to find that despite trying really hard (the hardest he has in years) he could not seem to beat Z500 after a couple of months of intense studying and playing. The best players don't even play Z500.

And in comes Daniel - 'GIVE ME 2 WEEKS AND I'M READY FOR 25/50'. The level of absurdity of that statement is akin to a bar brawler who's out of shape watching a MMA match between 2 elite fighters and saying 'JUST GIVE ME 2 WEEKS AND PUT ME IN THAT CAGE. WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW IS I HAVE A COUPLE OF TRICKS UP MY SLEEVE. AND THE HEART OF A CHAMPION.'

If he tried really, really hard he could MAYBE achieve the level of success of fellow live pro Gus Hansen, which is a long term loserate of -3bb/100 in highstakes games. Though I doubt even that.

good post

DN clearly has one of his 3 assistants to come out with gimmicks to keep his name constantly circulating in the poker world with outlandish props that he has no intention of following through on. It's not a bad strategy considering he may have used up all of his run good in the WSOP.

If the bet is about a million, how much would it cost to persuade a couple of friends to lose a few bucks to you?
