This.
Absolutely this.

I'm saying that he doesn't need to.
So, by your logical equation...

Question: What does someone gain from crossing the street?

Answer: The person crossed the street.

... Alrighty!

I agree with you even though I think DN is totally out of line with most of his other comments towards deeb. I also however have no issue with deeb calling people out for ****ty packages. If you can’t stand by your package and feel bad when he calls you out for it then you probably are fleecing your buyers.

Oh and Daniel, your angle shoot on deeb was worse than anything he has done for the simple fact that when the floor came over you clearly changed your wording to get him to rule in your favor. #scummy

You didn't listen obviously
Market value, plain and simple.
People are willing to lose money for the entertainment of gambling on a celebrity.
Just like people willingly lose 50% of all their money in equity when they buy lottery and even more when they pay slots. It's entertainment.

Don't like the markup? Don't buy it plain and simple. I think you are a borderline moron if you do buy it from my perspective, but I also think that about people buying Lottery, and my perspective is not yours. And I would defend your right to make your own bad choices to the grave.

I said earlier i missed the part where he said that he will charge no murk uo, and its a class move no doubt. Nothing speacal obviously, it benefits him to sell some part for extra motivtion so i dont make him a hero for doing this, its just a normal thing to do and decent move by Daniel, i am not giving him any medals for this. My stance on this is that you can get away with higher mark up if there is a celebrity vlogging or whatever aspect to it, but just make it clear what this investment product entiails, as a lot of people just have no clue about it.

he isn't charging markup for any of the packages? Well yeah that does make him a hero...Or at least a savvy marketer who forgoes immediate $ for his own long term brand. I'm sure if he went 4X for the low stakes one and 2.5X for midstakes people would buy in

Yeah i am sure he can charge that murk up and will probably sell to misinfored and enthusiasts would buy , but how will that go along with the murk up police? And i am sure that Danny is scared of the markup police....please...he does this for two reasons, first is for motivation and second is tht he looks like a nice guy caring, yeah he is in position to make people believe that false perception, he obv diesnt care about the dollars he can earn from selling at extra mark up, its just a maketing trick, here i am selling at no murk up, this is the kind of guy i am, GTFO!!

Here is the thing, Vibes has access to a community of potential backers that your average poker pro does not through his Vlog. Vibes is taking advantage of that access with his ridiculous mark-up vs. career earnings which makes what he is doing that much worse. I mean, I am not surprised that a professional poker player is predatory (despite how much he virtue signals on twitter), but Vibes is taking it to a whole new level.

What is this supposed “touchy feely incident” involving DN and Amanda Leatherman that happened at the Big Game? First time I’ve heard about this.

Also wondering about this if anyone has any information?

Meh it was so vague, what Deeb said in the interview... Kind of lame really. I generally take Deeb over DNegs (both have pros/cons, but Deeb seems smarter/more authentic/funny), but this was a bit of a low blow to put out 2nd/3rd hand info imo.

Hell, it could be as little as DN and AL were smooching and made someone feel uncomfortable in 'the workplace', to something much creepier/intrusive. Who knows?

That's Deeb though, you take a small shot at him he feels that anything is on the table to come back at you with. This was his attempt at getting back at Dnegs for questioning his manhood by skipping out on his child's birth for a $300 donkament. He's got to be careful though, because one day his mouth is going to cost him a lot of money in the form of a lawsuit.

Not sure if you watched the pod but actually came up in response to Joey specifically talking about DN and AL being touchy feely on IG and in person.

OMG are u guys for real? LMAO who cares that is their business, get busy with your own.

You do realize your in the News, Views, and Gossip forum, right? The point is to be in other people's business

lol epic shutdown

Welcome back to the thread, Amanda!

Daniel knew he could get away with it (which he did) because he's Daniel.

I kind of respect him for that, to be honest...

There's been many times I've wanted to grab my stack and throw it at villain's nose/mouth area like a 120mph fastball. Above is the next best thing, and none of us poker civilians could ever get away with it.

So a PA caught them in the act or something and they settled out of court
Big whoop, US is so sensitive.

Still not as bad as posting pictures of that disgusting vegan pizza on Instagram

even if you banned all the winning players today and somehow restricted new signups to only "bad" players, tomorrow you would have winning players again. there's no way to eliminate winners in poker, besides taking all skill out of the game or raking the game to death.... oh right, that's the actual goal of the company he represents

**** daniel negreanu. such a god damn pos

what private games is he talking about? what move? what does that tweet even mean?

A 'private' game typically is set up 'way' ahead of when it starts and/or bypasses any list protocols normally in place for that particular room. These games 'block' anyone not on 'their' list from sitting down.

It's a way casinos are catering to what may end up a 'home' game otherwise and allows the organizer to control the lineup .. thus keeping Pros (good Players) out of the game.

In my area typically they get 1-2 hours of 'protection' before the room opens up the list after the game starts. We have a 'high stakes' game every Friday and even if you show up 6 hours before the game starts and/or the list shows up on the board you will be no better than 18th on the list when it's finally posted.

There are other casinos that have a 'Game of the Day' where Players who participated the week before have list priority beyond the normal list protocols of the room. This essentially is more of a protected game rather than a private game, but entails a lot of the same concepts.

'The tweet' extends from DNegs opinion that the casinos are catering to the demands of these private games which prevents Pros from being able to pick apart the room via game selection when a game hits the board. The harder it is for a Pro to get into these game, the less 'easier' profit they may acquire. Thus the harder it is for them to be a Pro. GL

Dany went batshht last night. Why? B/c another guy turned away? Crazy, fire breathing batshhtt, losing it was the response. Dany really is mad.
