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
I don't see why he wouldn't still win the $100K PLO and $50K mixed or similar. He would probably be playing more. There wouldn't be all this publicity. GG makes him out like some big superstar, which he maybe was 20 years ago.

As far as poker goes he is absolutely a superstar. That’s not really a term you use for poker players but whatever criteria you would choose he would be there.
No need to respond to ever single half azzed Low IQ take. I’ll be around for next week and will handle anything that needs to be addressed.

He might be a superstar but he kinda sucks. I don't think anyone is arguing his level of fame.
Talking like a child has made him more famous, and I guess it is more entertaining than watching
someone play who never says anything.
But there is no chance in a million years Daniel is close to top 100 in the world.
He just won in PLO, but his PLO game sucks badly. When he wins its usually pretty sick.
His match vs Doug Polk was just pathetic. He was just awful in that. Then he
gets smashed by Hellmuth and looks awful in that match too.
Sadly people worship those on TV and such. So your a fanboy worshiping a guy you've deluded to
thinking because he's on TV he must be great, but his results are pathetic considering his experience
and the resources he has. After ever win too his eigo goes out of control and he thinks he's the greatest
Somehow his cowardly mind justifies everything. His last PLO win was pretty sick. The luck he has was
unreal. Set over Set. Then he gets in money in like a donk with like TT8? on a 932J board with a dead flush
draw and sucks out. His High roller NLH win he went runner 33 for quads vs Aces full. And his mind just
justifies it all like he played great. This world is truly ****ed because of people like him and you.
At least speaking for myself, the reason I like Daniel is not because I think he's the best poker player in the world, or even one of the best poker players in the world. It's not even because of his personality.
It's because he is the best ambassador in the game right now for variants of poker beyond NHLE. His daily WSOP vlog allows viewers to see his enthusiasm for all forms of poker, and gives us a sense of both the poker scene outside of NLHE, and the sort of strategic thinking needed for these games. This is not the highest level strategy analysis for any of these games, but it is the sort of discussion which is needed to help people who might not be experienced in these games understand why they might be interesting.
As someone who's greatest hope for the future of poker is the expansion in availability of different poker variants, he is the single most valuable asset we have.

Didn’t take the time to read much of this rambling nonsense. but will address the notion that I am a fanboy. That’s a misread, I post simply for the entertainment value of dealing with jealous toxic posters and pointing out that hate like this isn’t normal behavior.
Lol at “the world is truly ****ed” due to him”, that’s just unhinged. Reality is that he’s one of few people recs are excited to see and is good for game. He’s not hurting you in the slightest, his success doesn’t impact your life and if you want can simply ignore his vlogs and such.
DN is the biggest superstar in this game right now and it's not close. Only hellmuth might be in the realm of being known by players. So what if you think other people may be better, nowhere near as many people know who those people are.

PokerGO used to be greatest asset we had by far. Last year they put around 15 hours of coverage of the 50K PPC for free.
WSOP coverage going forward will probably take it some steps back.

I hear this year was a trial of sorts, and next year the streaming options will be much better, this according to DNegs.
Also, the fact that the ME Final Table is going to be played live on ESPN/ESPN2 is surely a positive for poker in general, as opposed to being only on a niche paywall'd platform like PokerGo.

You misread.
I said the world is ****ed because of people like him. He has no impact on the world whatsoever.
But he's a coward who will say anything for money. That's why increasing the rake is good for the game.
You should go look at the woodbine poker reviews in Toronto, about 500, 1 star reviews. Everyone complaining
about how the rake is absurdly high. But increasing the rake is good for the game I thought. And this is
in Toronto where Daniel is from. Its just sad to see fanboys like you who are so ******ed your hero's can say anything
and you will nod your head in agreement. You deserve to have the rake at least doubled wherever you play poker
Because increasing the rake is good
It’s not normal behavior to be so mad over “higher rake is good”. He was talking to gambling adults, if you didn’t agree with his rationale you didn’t have to play. And it’s certainly not a lie as it can be true, such as when a higher cover charge can change the population for the better. A guy who worked for a company had to discuss a price increase, happens every day in world get over it.
FYI, this is all the time I have for you today

I think his vlogs are a greater asset to poker than the past live WSOP coverage on PokerGo. His vlogs get about the same number of views are the current free WSOP live streams on YouTube (usually around 100k-150k views). His vlog where he won the PPC got 500k views. I have no idea what the numbers were on PokerGo, but I have to imagine a subscription service gets a lot fewer views than the free official channel.
Thread be like:
DN sucks
DN just so lucky
DN is down last 10 years
DN is down last 5 years
DN can't beat 100k's
These 100K's are soft as fk
DN won a 80 players SnG
DN can't beat 200NL online
W/e DN isn't a top 100 player
DN is what's wrong with this world
You are a fanboy
I think I covered it pretty well
It was never about “my boy” DN, although I’m someone who recognizes that he is one of few people walking around these days that are good for pokerI only post a few weeks during the year (ScotchWeek) but I like to take on toxi
I will leave the Dnegs discussion to everyone else as I don't care much either way. But an insufferable tool that talks about himself in the third person, calling ppl 'Corky' (classy btw) and 'JellyBelly', and idolizing another adult male as he drools all over his shoes simply because he plays poker is hilarious. Thinking you are actually 'taking on' other posters is even more obtuse and shallow. Keep up the good work Scotch. You will get to shake Dnegs hand one day and then you can vow to never wash that hand again.

I don't consider him a superstar, because he is not a dominant player like when he was making all those TV final tables. He is a good high stakes tournament player.

Not only is he a “superstar” but he’s one of maybe three left. Besides for possibly WPT (what station is that one these days?) not much is on TV. But I’ve watched events such as 50K PPC win where he was “TV” because you can watch streaming on your TV lol

Valid points but I think the PokerGo WSOP also made it eventually to CBSSN or at least they did. And there’s also a PokerGo station on DirecTV and Tubi. You got to see every hand and have commentary from guys like Bleznick, Vitch, and Livingston. Getting the free education on many spots helps.
But what Negreanu does is great, no dispute there. But the lack of coverage going forward from WSOP on mixed will hurt.

He is a superstar with the public more than anyone else. I don't think even his detractors dispute that. Maybe Ivey and Hellmuth are also well known.
He isn't a superstar with his play now. I disagree strongly with people implying he is a losing player, etc. He made his net wins or losses public. Many of these people with $30+M "live earnings" have tournament net losses over the last whatever years. He at least holds his own at the highest level of tournaments, and not many do that in all of NLHE, PLO, and mixed.
He used to be a superstar with his play. When he had the promotion of playing anyone HU at any game, he had to be close to the best player in the world. Then all the final tables on TV and the 2nd place in the $1M buyin in 2014.

Superstar is an odd choice of wording if you weren’t talking about popularity and certainly when I said one of three it was Ivey and Hellmuth being the other two. But anyhow he’s one of top mixed tournament players in world, and now with 100K plo, 50K PPC, 15K Dealer’s Choice, and his record in 10Ks over past few years that certainly encompasses any era.
I agree he is a superstar in terms of popularity. Everyone agrees on that. In terms of play currently, he very good, but not way ahead of many other players.
Based on what I saw at the WSOP the summer for who attracts an audience, the second biggest superstar in poker behing Daniel might honestly now be Martin Kabrhel.
I think everyone agrees he is the most well known player who attracts the most attention. Many people ITT seem to be arguing that he is just an ordinary player or maybe a losing player who couldn't beat mid stakes. It seems to be implied that GG gives him all this publicity and money to enter events he is an underdog in.
Relevant to previous discussion, turns out no one is actually a winner at 200 NL.

5% 3bb cap brutal. I want to run an offshore poker crypto site. Negreanu would be -25bb/100+ after 200k hands on there

Twice as bad as his -12bb/100 against Polk!
