Daniel Negreanu's very own containment thread. All things Danny go here
how bad must he be when a girl falls asleep while making out and snores right after?
life fish..... food arrived but didn
Well, conversely to what you're saying it wouldn't be talking about a good play a made, but admitting how good he's been running against other players. You certainly have to run spectacularly to reach an Omaha8 FT.

Yea I agree I was thinking to end my post with that.. He has to have been running insanely good to not have a few hands to talk about where he played good. The fact that hes omitting hand histories while running up a stack probably means hes winning pots hes not even that proud about. (i.e sucking out)
Nobody mention the edit job in I think it was vlog #2 when he was playing chess and made a lol really dumb mistake leaving his bishop and knight exposed to the same pawn. I love how he said dont worry I'll show me come back then the footage was immediately edited to something different and of course we dont see the outcome of the chess match. It's all smoke and mirrors with t
I was more struck by a recent vlog where he showed the opening, proudly called it "the kings indian" when it was in fact, the pirc.
I agree but have thought a few times why doesn't he just wait to start recording until he gets to his room or some other place where people won't bother him? Seems like he's to some degree inviting the problem of interruptions and having to be dismissive of fans by recording as he talks and walks through the hallways filled with poker players.
It's a 15 minute break and he has said repeatedly for years that if you want a picture or an autograph, hit him up while he's at the table and he'll gladly accomodate, but not when he's rushing to grab a snack or go to the washroom during short breaks. I imagine part of the reason he shoots the videos while walking is with the hopes that some people will see it and realize this isn't the time to interrupt him.

quite common mistake in beginner chess circles, but yeah, that was a facepalm just because he sounded so proud that he was playing a King's Indian and... yeah about that..

I don't know, maybe, or maybe not. If he's just getting a bunch of suited A2s and flopping big, there's not really much to talk about in a hand breakdown

He's a true, man of the people. He's not villain-coded at all.
It's not shameless promotion. The GG merch is just soooo luxurious.
Is he an owner of GG or something. I noticed he only paid 1.6K or 1.7K from his Paris Tournament Account when he registered for the 5K. Is he getting a 67% discount? In that same vlog, from a couple days ago, he was walking through how easy it was to register and then he couldn't quite seem to "scratch off" his seat assignment.
In case you didn't pick up on sarcasm above, dude is a menace. He openly told you several years ago that more rake was better. And now we're forced to use this app. This app is delaying updates. Why? My conclusion: they're colluding with pokergo to literally capitalize this info.
I wonder if Cary Katz is going to let us buy-in with student loans next...

Normal people would be saying "Im running so well, getting premium starting hands and good boards to win pots" or something along those lines instead of whining about the hands they lose if thats the case.
Danny is literally sitting at the final table singing. If he isnt singing he's just talking nonsense. He has absolutely zero self awareness or self control.
This thing will take forever, jack the blinds up!
Mix in some double board PLO bomb pots every 30 minutes.

This is why they maybe shouldn’t stream these limit tournaments. Just put together they highlights for a TV package. They are playing for several hundred thousands dollars, they aren’t playing for you.

What big name famous player is/was normal? Normal people don’t vlog their entire lives
2nd place!
Seriously wish people would drop this. The context in which he said it made perfect sense and 100% correct if you'd ever take 2 minutes of your day and listen to what exactly he said.
He’s now following that ‘more rake is better’ philosophy on GGPoker. It’s not good for professional poker players
Isildur seemed like the best player post-flop. He just could have folded more hands pre-flop. Maybe that sums up whole poker career

This style of play is tough to win in PLO8. He's very lucky he made it this far playing the way he did. You're going to get bit a lot playing mediocre to bad hands pre and c-betting 90%.
Also no one was beating Bambrick. Dude couldn't miss.
Another note, that might have been one of the best performances ever at a Final Table by anyone. Negreanu played near perfect, it was kind of unreal to see. He folded exactly when he was behind and call/raised perfectly as well. Go rewatch, its actually insane how good that was.
SO with this 300k score out of the gate will Dnegs finish in the black this wsop?
He is going to play all the 6 figure entry fees unless he is deep in some other tournament. He has the assets, sponsorship, and probably backing, and doesn't care if he is down for the Series or the year.
