I agree with him.

Getting barred from a flight is a huge deal, shouldnt be done except in really egregious cases.

I dunno, man. That couple sounded sloshed. The woman clearly had more than one glass of wine. And it seems like she was doing cartwheels down the aisle, and from context, didn't seem to be listening to instructions to take her seat, etc. I'm not sure I'd want to wait until we're at 30,000 feet to see how things play out with them.

Yeah can’t play games when trying to get on an airplane

No idea why DN is taking up this battle

Lol............."it's the exact opposite, but........." - yeah she ain't drunk lol

Act normal on the airplane get to ur destination how is this so hard to understand

The bar is quite low, no cartwheels down the aisle and no puking on yourself as you walk by and it should be no problem

This. Perhaps Daniel, in the not so distant past, was also removed from a flight or otherwise detained at an airport for inappropriate behavior. Maybe this spot hit close to home for him. Maybe he tried to board a plane wearing blackface and dreadlocks and could not produce a Jamaican ID to match the persona. Or maybe a TSA agent stopped him while going through an x-ray machine and he responded in an Arabic accent that the selfie stick in his hand was not a weapon. In any case, Daniel should use his social platform to take up causes that actually matter. #dontdrinkb4flying

It’s rich coming from him, who has done black face and had multiple meltdowns on stream. He’s saying the lady was unprofessional, which may be true, but without the full context, calling for her job is ridiculous.

Lol no one cares about the black face (that was done before the memo circulated making it bad) or melting down on stream

The lady was being a little snooty but doesn’t rise to level of circulating it

DNegs has always been a pitchfork reactionary, the actual facts of the situation be damned. He’s been like that forever on many, many issues.

DNegs busts PLO High Roller at PokerGo on the money bubble in 8th. After peaking at just over 1M in chips at 10kbb there wasn't much to see after he got moved away from stream table I guess.

He doubled up the shortest stack to become the short stack when he Flopped 2 pair and the opponent Rivered a 9-high flush!

I fell asleep and woke up just in time to see him get set over set in the bust out hand with under 300k in stack and increased blinds.

He had a very large stack early on Day 1 and then just seemed to hit a wall. Not sure if he went into lock down or just didn't have any spots and/or just didn't play as aggressive with a big stack .. and then the rest of the field caught up and eventually passed him by.

Not sure what's next for him .. I'm sure he's got enough points for the $1M freeroll.

He did finish 2nd in one of the mixed game events in the last week or so for $117k (10k event) .. but if he played all the events and even had a few re-entries in there then it was not a profitable series of 9 events. GL

Hes bad at PLO, for him to pay 100k to play a tourney in that game is ridiculous. He seems to think hes good at it though from his WSOP Vlogs.

Seems to be a recurring theme to me. Player is good at NL and gets legitimate results, invests their now huge roll playing various other games for way higher BI than their skill level (would never be able to get a roll big enough to afford even 200$ PLO buyins if he only played PLO from the beginning), donks a random tournament and now thinks hes great at all kinds of poker while anyone who plays that game can see literally micro stakes leaks in his game.

I see the same thing in the social media of some semi famous pros from my country. They have a few good scores in NL and now I see them playing high stakes 8game, PLO8, NL2-7 tourneys etc and playing terribly. They dont seem aware, posting hand histories on insta where they lament their "bad beats" after the flop when their own pre-flop play was complete garbage and they deserved to bust. Same thing as DN with his PLO vlogs where he unironically thinks he has played flawlessly, even going through hand histories as if they dont contain poor play.

Bad is an understatement. He's absolutely atrocious at plo. The funny thing is he thinks he's great at it. There are NL players who might play a little plo here and there and dabble in plo events who know it's their weakest game and that they might be break even or small winners. They also know how to navigate tournaments which most plo players don't really know how to do so that's where an edge can come from.Somehow DN thinks he's a plo wizard which is hilarious.

I'm sure if he actually studied plo and played it for a while he would get good at it. But right now if he open sat online the tables would fill up in a minute.

i know nothing of his plo game, or even plo in general

but i think it's harder for people to be objective about their skill level in because so often equities run 55/45 anyway that you can get away with poor decisions for much longer than in holdem

I did say he makes micro stakes mistakes to be fair

Sure especially when you barely play it.

I mean, if you're playing preflop BINGO then yeah, that's the PLO equities a lot of the time. I actually like Dnegs "limping is pimping" approach to PLO. It's a game where you want to see a flop where the equities drastically change.

I mostly play PLO cash, but some tourneys as well. And post-flop people will stack off to me when I have 70% or more equity pretty frequently. So why would I want to give that up and play preflop BINGO, allowing the weaker players to make smaller mistakes?

limping is way more correct in plo tournaments which is what he's playing. but his "strategy" post flop is amusing.
he does get to make up for a lot of his plo shortcomings in big field low buy in events from being able to navigate tournaments and from reading amateurs well. But in the bigger events there are no amatuers to read, they all know how to navigate tournaments and he sucks at plo.

Limping is pimping actually came from a different activity then poker. It was coined by a young man from, let's say Canada, when he first came to Las Vegas. He was in desperate need of a roll and found someone to pimp him out. He would walk around the seedier areas of Vegas with his limp pecker out to attract clients. And now you know, the rest of the story. Not sure who it was though.

. This is amazing!!! Long live AI and... creativity

He is OK at limit and mixed game MTTs, because he is old school and knows how to play different games and knows how to play MTTs. He seems to get good results at $3K and less PLO MTTs, but agree he is burning money at high stakes PLO MTTs. Probably shouldn't be playing NLHE high rollers either. He can crush lower stakes events in whatever, but has so much money from past winnings and sponsorships to play what he shouldn't be playing.

Yeah, it used to be really bad. These NLHE MTT players would play stud game tournaments and try to bluff when their board showed they couldn't have what they were representing etc.

You definitely seem like you are writing an objective and sober analysis, and definitely don't come across like a low stakes grinder incredibly jealous of anyone who's ever had more success than you.

I concur with your thoughts, Daniel
