Deeb dad>Negreanu dad

edit: DN thinks Deeb is out of line for saying his (Deebs) marriage will last longer than Negreanus. Meanwhile Negreanu is saying Deeb is a walking heart attack who will die soon and that he's a terrible father. Perspective.

His conversation with Shaun Deeb shows that he is absolutely clueless on how he himself communicates. His comments are, if not worse, at least on par with Deebs digs.

A. Attend birth of child. Have to stay away from the child 3x as long some other day in the future to make up for the lost EV

B. Dont attend birth of child. Get 3x that time free'd up to spend with the child later on

If you don't think being there during the birth is some inherently can't-miss-thing and you value the *total time you can spend with your child* higher than that moment, then not attending is perfectly fine. Attending would give you less total time in life to spend with the family later on

That you value the childbirth day higher than someone else (Deeb and family in this case) does doesn't make you right. It's their life and time.

Sounds like Deeb thinks C isn’t even an option. Is he that hard up that he can’t actually afford to take an extended break from the game?

I don't make a moral judgement on it, just noticing that he values the time saved (by not having to work more hours in the future) higher than that [to some/most people] very special event.

IMO the debate is more over whether someone's kid(s) should be brought into the conversation to begin with. I don't think it's correct, but others may feel differently.

I mean ofcourse there should be option C, but that was never an option for Deeb probably, he just dont GAF about being there and its his right. IMO its just ******ed missing a birth of your child over a day or two of SCOOP and the whole EV argument makes it even more sad , especially now when you have smilar online festivals running almost all year long. DNegs got him by the balls on that one lol.

The debate is whether you should miss it for playing poker.

I mean I'd be there for the birth of my kid but I don't see it as some end all be all thing of the child's life. I don't even know if my father, who loves me above anything or anyone, attended my birth. Not like I remember the event, I just assume he did but wouldnt care if he missed it. It's between him and my mother whatever the case was. For anyone else but the parents in question to bring it up is out of line imo, none of their business

Many people shouldn't even be parents. Are we really going to blame a guy for making his own choice as long as he doesn't hurt the child? Yes it's weird, but so what. If you're going to be furry mad about something, go after all the people that are really messing up their parenting instead.

Are we really talking about missing the birth of your child for a $300 donkament? lol

As much as I like dweeb handing it to dnegs, he should change the subject from that instead of trying to defend it. Go back to how dnegs whored out the whole poker community for money or the choice center scam. Either way it would be in his best interest to change the subject because it is not a good look for him no matter what he says, or what he makes his wife say, on Twitter.

I was watching an old HSN episode where DN flopped a str8 and Sammy Farha raised him with a baby flush draw and DN reraised All In and refused to run it twice and SF hit his baby flush on the turn.....
Greatness!

Whether it's real or not, why did Daniel post a vacation-feet-selfie with his package in it? LOL

When I first saw it in this thread, I thought it was a fake screenshot.

I mean, I don't hate him for it. It was quite the ballsy social media move.

Deeb and his wife made a choice they felt was right for them. People face hard choices all the time when it comes to work, money, and family life. Doesn't mean Deeb was thrilled to not be there. Baby's gotta eat.

Effectively DN is ridiculing them for not being well off enough to just make it all happen. Total lack of class.
