DN has good results in $10K limit WSOP events. You can't tell about busting early. It is such a tough field, and you can get allin in the NLHE and PLO rounds.

In 50k you shouldn't be waiting. You should be attacking the waiters.

Put it this way, he looks around and doesn't see the sucker.

The guy that busted must really suck, right? He has two rings and 2.5 mil is cashes but he is out already so he must not be a caliber player either.

Probably has the sense to be nicer to the invite to the rich guys house game via private jet and we've all heard how popular PH is at these games. Don't the sense people want DNegs in their private games though.
Funny, I heard the total opposite about Phil off camera, that he was a really nice guy. Also had some friends who met him in a bar once. They said he was really nice and even had a few pictures taken with them.

This is a pretty solid take, and it shows the weight behind the "let's just buy a baby RIGHT NOW while we work on making our own" angle. It's the most time-tested way of keeping a woman around when she'd be better off without you.

Completely agree. DNegs just doesn't bring anything to the table apart from money. Beyond that, he's aggressively unfunny, judgmental as hell, petty, vain, and shallow, constantly making shoddy displays of liberal virtue and holier-than-thou values meanwhile making his living as a professional gambler literally as a pure leech on mankind. He's the epitome of what the British call a wanker. But. He's not violent and he's harmless enough, and that money, though. A typical blonde with a lot of plastic surgery fast approaching the sell-by date could definitely do a lot worse. Could probably do a bit better too, though.

someone with integrity would sign the prenup

He does not truly qualify as a wanker until he spends hours watching someone's vlogs to parse out opinions about someone's new marital relationship and shares them on a poker forum.

Ouch!!! Pretty much sums him up. What are Helmuth's political beliefs? Is he Vegan? Who knows, he doesn't virtue signal them all over twitter.

There's nothing wrong with political beliefs or veganism, it's the way they're packaged.

That's why DNegs made a picture of his package.

Yes the big bet games but I saw a really sketchy razz hand though, Parker limps a 3, DNegs limps a T, Sharecki limps a Q and Elezra raises an 8, at which point Parker reraises and everyone calls a cap. Parker knew his customers it seems as I believe he had a 2 and a 6 in hole.

Btw he’s sitting next to Shaun Deeb for Day 2

Bezos married before founding Amazon; he was just some guy working at a hedge fund (where his wife also worked) when they got hitched.

So a hiatus it is for me. You won't see me post on any 2plus2 forum until at least March next year under any user name. And that is a promise.

I am actually pleased that some players still think opening with 3457ds in that spot is a good play despite me tapping quite hard on the PLO MTT tank.

Good luck to all, including to DNegs who I think there is a lot to admire about in what he has achieved in life.
Don’t listen to the haters, you make good sensible posts. Don’t let these jealous NVG rejects dissuade you from posting, there are many more here who enjoy your posts.

Chris Ferguson snubbed again, this time it was even weirder, anyone know why they seemingly don't speak to each other?

He wasn't really snubbed, but yeah, they have some beef.

The problem is people complaining have the loudest voices, whereas those that are happy are on the whole quiet, so not given much attention. So the noisy few get attention, while the silent majority get overlooked.

So in the same way Negreanu has thousands of fans happily and quietly paying attention to his public messages, but a few malcontents attack anything he says or does, and give a distorted appearance of his failure, so SageDonkey is attacked by a noisy few, whereas his vast fanbase silently soak up his verbose wisdom.

So Donkey, you have improved your postings by being much shorter, and it is a free world, where people can say what they want, so I say stick to posting here, as I am sure Negreanu is very grateful to you for giving him advice on how to play.

Don't let the bastards grind you down!

Umm, so in the latest vlog Danny insults the guy that busts him in the bounty.

He does it in his typical, passive aggressive fashion. Nevermind the fact that Danny is wrong, that the call is 100% correct (particularly in bounty), and that he's actually ahead of Danny's hand.

He is the cringiest man I know--it's compelling stuff.

Man I just realized how awful this stuff must be if he sees it.

He really should just find a good friend who's willing to be brutally honest with him. Like that Cheers episode where the guy follows Cliff around with an electric zapper.

Why would it be awful if he reads it? He doesn't gaf what people think. He's self-righteous and thinks he's awesome. He doesn't care what others think or how they feel. That's how being a narcissist works.

well that didn't last long... dnegs becomes the second person eliminated from the 50k PPC early on day 2 (looking forward to tmr's vlog rant critiquing the poor play of his opponents):
