What does this mean?

Looks like Daniel burnt his bridges with another long time friend in Maria Ho.

Thanks for the screenshots and cliffs. Dnegs is the Paul Pierce of poker in terms of just being absolutely petty.

Hi Sirius:

I remember when Tuchman called me a “Fxxxing Clown” because he had no understanding of what my poker psychology book was about. Is this the type of person we want voting on who to give awards to? (He did withdraw his comments but never apologized.)

Best wishes,
Mason

Apparently it was rigged. 12.5% of the jury pool that voted for Maria Ho was Maria Ho.

He's such a douche nozzle. Even when he's obviously mistaken he doubles down.

Poker players being shady jerks? Im not surprised

Nothing about Daniel but for you Twitter watchers, very interesting article on the CEO.

Daniel is going much the same way as Phil Hellmuth; has a number of die hard fans who lap up everything he says but people with half a brain know he's deluded and has an over inflated opinion of himself. Over the last 12-18 months his comments are becoming more and more deranged and frankly I do not know why people insist on giving him all the attention he continues to get.

Also he blocked me on Twitter for replying "guess more rake is better" when he shared a photo of the rock he got Amanda so I am thankfully saved from reading a lot of his tirades.

I don't have a horse in this race, but Jonathan Little sided w/Daniel (in agreement that David and Dara are trolls):

Apparently they played some kind of prank on Jonathan a few years ago and he's still quite salty about it.

Did not know that. Thanks.

To me Negreanu is the David Brent of poker. He's not a bad person just a bit of a twit.

I don't know what stables you are referring to. But horses have to get pre race inspections post race inspections often by more than one vet. They have to be certified fit to race and tested for doping as well as any athlete.

It would need corruption from vets on a grand grand scale for what you say to be true throughout racing.

The deaths at the track in santa anita where due to the course itself. And a lot of courses around the world could be made safer and kept better. They didn't adjust to the wetter weather california had. The track was ****.

The alchohol thing that is common throughout the horse world. Sorry to dissolution you. They are called hock injections or getting their hocks done. And if you have been riding or 35 yrs you have prob ridden a horse that has had them or will have them or at least in the same stable as a horse getting them. There is nothing wrong with it. If you don't like it then you pretty much don't like any horse sport or riding at all. Vets do it and claim it's perfectly safe. If you WERE in the horse world as much as you say you would probably have ridden a horse that has had the EXACT SAME TREATMENT. It's also used for arthritis and osteoarthritis in older horses. There is nothing shocking or EVIL about it.

As for doping its more a case of companies come up with new steroids every year and it takes a few years for them to be banned.

Horse racing isn't my favorite equine sport but its not my least fav. Dressage horses have way worse injuries. And eventing causes more deaths.

Racehorses are bought and sold for not thousands not hundreds of thousands but MILLIONS. It would make ZERO sense to waste that investment.

Banning it would simply put it underground. We need animal rights activists to be realistic about affecting real world changes. Because on the other side we have 'punters' who see a horse as just a horse.

Any Ex Jockey i have known has always had a passion and a love for horses. And it's sure not an easy life they have so I respect them.
I am not saying things don't need to always be striving for something better and that people in the industry will always be open to that on the contrary.

I would hardly consider someone a horsey person if they freak out about Hock Injections. THATS MAD!

DNEGS just strikes me as someone who is very unbalanced and kind of nuts.

I think he would be 'trouble' to be around in life. That might be true for a lot of people in the poker industry though. It's not like horses.

For someone who meets people from all walks of life Daniel has a very hard time seeing other people's perspective. What is this dude's issue? Other day he was arguing online about how it's dumb to not like apples and bananas. Who gives a ****. It really pissed him off that people go Keto instead of vegan.

Thank you for making my point . As a horse person non of what I said offends you. I'll stand by my statement . It's corrupt on every level.

I feel sorry for his wife(fiance?). I get the feeling that he is a complete control freak. She'll be tortured every day she's with him. I give it 5 years max.

Never understood awards in any industry.
even funnier when people get frustrated and angry on the outcome who won some award.
How do people put up the energy to argue about these kind of stuff?
Fun reads tho..

Lol terrible read imo, I feel sorry for dnegs.

Yeah, it’s her second time with him so she should know what she is getting herself into with Danny. It is nobody’s fault but her own if it turns into a disaster.

Its incredible that PokerStars maintains this flake as the face of their company. Someone is not letting go of a bad decision.

As awful as he is, I'm hard-pressed to think of a suitable replacement. Who is the #1 pick for poker site spokesman these days? Probably still Daniel tbh.

Kdy Wow lots of marriage councillors in the thread, giving free advice!
What "disaster" are you talking about here, breakup! OH NO! Only threat is to Dnegs if he doesn't get a prenup for some dumb reason. Very doubtful a poker pro wouldn't
