I saw Daniel Negreanu at a grocery store in Las Vegas yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Yawn

Did you call 911?

I actually sent Daniel Negreanu a picture my daughter drew of him, not expecting a reply, but he returned it covered in ketchup with a note that simply read, "oops..." and a picture of him with his shirt off.

When PH used to sit at the cash game tables on UB back in the day, the waitlists would rapidly fill. He was a big loser at 6 max in my DB, although I didn’t play more than 4 or 5 sessions with him. I’d never have got up from the table when he sat, I’ll tell you that.

Obvious BS.

No, it's true. I was the girl at the counter.

I remember reading a long Sauce post somewhere or other after he had been destroyed over many sessions by the late nutsinho, many years ago (an era where he and others would actually openly discuss strategy). To anyone who knew the remotest thing about poker, Ben was getting absolutely destroyed by brutal, brutal variance, session after session, but I don't believe his analysis of the experience mentioned variance one single time.

And that was more than 10 years ago.

It's definitely a true story. I was the manager on duty that night.

Amusing.

Can confirm, was the bottle of Milky Ways.

I think we can all agree that variance doesn't matter. And I traditionally don't get pissed off or irritated or out of kilter when I take a bad beat. At the same time, I can understand and sympathize with some frustration of getting hit with bad beat after bad beat after bad beat in an extraordinarily high-stakes HU match where hands come at you rapid-fire, with only limited time to reset emotional calibration because you're too busy thinking about the analysis for the next hand.

I'm sure I'd be out of sorts too if I were losing 900-odd thousand in this kind of a match.

I think DN is playing pretty well, all things considered. He freely and repeatedly admits that Doug is better than he is and -- tuff fish troll videos aside -- seems to be carrying a pretty good attitude towards all this.

I don't think he's even close to being ready to quit.

Hah! i've got you! MILKY WAYS DON'T COME IN BOTTLES!

It's definitely a true story. I was the top of my class Navy Seal military asset that has been on numerous secret raids against Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I stood in the corner of the grocery store monitoring everything.

So if he never gets called by worse, then he can bet with any two cards that have got to the river. Chances of Doug having the straight flush aren't that high and he'll fold everything else you say. So maybe it's positive EV for DNegs to raise.

Karma may not be the most expeditious form of justice but it's certainly the most satisfying.
