I don't see any of the readers of his posts threatening him with physical violence.

So, who is the irrationally bitter angry hating one - Negreanu or someone pointing out his threatening behaviour, that would be subject to arrest if he tried to do that in person to anyone?

He is a wimp, talking big, then saying, "hey, I was only joking" when confronted with his classless behaviour. He has already been divorced twice, there comes a point where one has to realise the fault can't always be with the other person. Unless of course one's idol and role model is Rocky, a boxer who never even existed.
Did he and ANegs get divorced yet?

I want to see Dnegs face a real challenge. Overcome something, show some character.

Is Daniel N the best now that GTO is dead after Triton Series dominated by instinct players? Germans must be down a billion at Triton

DN was a way better player when he was chatty and getting tells from people than he is now. All he does is push his glasses up the bridge of his nose and tries to look like a thinking GTO player.

I been thinking about this for a while. I was trying to find the words. An announcement this epic could be ruined with the wrong choice of words.

It all started about 7 months ago. I was watching him play and seen him push his glasses up the bridge of his nose in silence and squint his eyebrows as he was being value bet.

Then he raised as a bluff.

I says to myself "Why doesn't Danny Negreanu do what he used to and say the guy's range out loud to him like he used to?" Then the player smiles and gives it away and Danny folds (or pays to see so he knows if he can trust his read).

I then said "man this really really really needs to be said and I'm just the person to do it."

I then signed up for public speaking at the local community college. I paid $399 for a 20 hour class.

I watched more of Daniel's hands. I studies him as he pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.

I watched it in 0.25x speed, 2x speed. I watched it with and without my shirt on. I watched before and after using the bathroom.

Today I finally realized this is the day to ****ing nail it.

At first I prayed. I prayed like I never prayed before. I wanted to get it right. I went to a mosque and a church just to make sure the right God heard it because I do not know which one is the right one. I covered all of my bases.

And here we are.

His tweet re: Trump avatar.


and for the rest of the SJW poker crowd-

the entire concept of pro gamblers who take direct advantage of lesser sophisticated folks to earn a living being progressives is about as hypocritically moronic as humanly possible.

furthermore-the distribution of losing gamblers regardless of poker, sports, horses, stocks etc............

is highly characterized by huge losers at the bottom. Larger losers than the biggest winners.

These people are usually highly skilled professionals. People that know a little but think they know a lot.
Physicians, lawyers, brokers etc.....with businessmen mixed in.

Guess what? Given Hollywood, Silicon Valley, Academia, Wall St, the wealthiest men on earth class are currently 90-10 democrat.

As stupid as the avg GOP might be-without the controls most of the wealth in this country class-DNC-

pro gambling would be a theoretical notion.

It would be neat to have some situation where Negreanu, Polk, Hellmuth, Dwan, etc lost all their money say I dunno 20k.

What happens to them? Do they get on the grind again? Could they build it up through the low/mid level streets or would they just give up?

If they need to play but can't afford it they would just get staked. Dwan probably already is.

To grind up from micros to highstakes online, Doug could, Dwan unlikely, the rest no way. In live poker they all could if they run good enough.

I started listening to some of the DAT Poker Podcasts with Adam, Terence Chan and DNegs. The first one I listened to was from September 2018 and DNegs was about to go on a date with some hot girl he met that was from Nashville.

The next one I listened to was from December 2018 and he was now engaged to Amanda Leatherman. That was some quick engagement!

The next one I listened to was from March 2019 and he was saying they were planning to adopt two kids from a 3rd world country.

You can't make this stuff up! I think I like Deeb's side of the divorce challenge bet.

I agree that they probably don't stand much of a chance (like most marriages/relationships) but they were dating a long time ago, so it's not like they just got insta engaged...

I think by this time they have other options to make money (e.g. as commentators or hosts of poker shows)

Could they grind out a living on bot infested sites? Maybe. Could they grind out a living as 'rounders' in Joe Schmoe cash games? Definitely.

I'm following the Andrew Neeme/Brad Owen vlogs - particularly the 1/3 and 2/5 meetup games. They seem soft enough for someone of Helmuth/Negreanu/Polk/Dwan's caliber.

...and then there's also the "old guard" to play against. I.e. games they can get into where they know the people and the way these play well enough to turn a profit.

You don't have to be the best to make a living. You don't even have to be the best at the table. You just have to be better than some at the table and know who they are.

Question of the day.

Is Dneg vegan for his health or is it an attempt to come off as a better, healthier, cooler person than the Doug Polk's of the world? An attempt to say "Hey I am still relevant, look at me I'm a vegan poker player! You have to find that interesting, I only eat soy burgers!"

Dude, have you tried going vegan? You don't do this just to brag once a month. Going full vegan when you actually like meat is hard.

(I have a quirk that I skip out on something each year as a new years resolution - just for the year. Sometimes it's something inane like coffee or ketchup or soft drinks, but this year I'm doing the vegetarian thing (not even vegan). Even with one cheat day a month this has been the toughest thing to stick to. By far.)

This has probably been adressed a million times over the years but I was rewatching old HSP episodes on youtube and I was again shocked at what a petty, passive agressive pathetic man he is. The way he treated someone like Matusow at the table, even though the man is headache most of the time, was so cringe inducing. And his constant mocking of the accent of an asian player at the table made my skin crawl, like the most unfunny thing ive ever watched, he has absolutely 0 self awareness. I was shocked at myself what pleasure I got from watching him constantly get outdrawn on and then make horrible river calls to the point of a mental breakdown when Erick Lindgren put him allin with his quads against his flopped straight. Magnificent.

100% of these would get staked
You'd have to erase their money and PR they built up
you'll just never know

I didnt mind any of this. Matusow deserved the treatment he got. DNegs and Eli are the 2 biggest colluders in TV poker history however and this should never be forgotten.
