Daniel had a very good day 1 in the $50K NLHE event, and is sitting in 11th place with 131 entries going toward the last bit of late reg at the start of day 2.

Relevant to previous discussion, turns out no one is actually a winner at 200 NL.

This doesn't mean anything as it's not post rakeback.


Winning "post rakeback" is a fragile state. Fragile for the mind, fragile for the bankroll.

all that matters is your net result. everything else is noise. You can charge me 4 dollars a hand and give me 50 percent back or charge me 2 dollars a hand. Same difference.

If you're treating poker as a business net rake paid is an expense like anything else.

Do these same rules apply for sponsorship money that a player gets paid to play in tournaments? So this hypothetical players poker results would actually be what he makes including the sponsorship money, right?

Are far as his bank account goes absolutely.

Saying people are unprofitable on this site while discounting rakeback is as silly as using someone's Hendon to judge their results when you don't know how much they're in for.

Rakeback is part of the game for everyone one the site.


Most poker normies will gladly pay 1.8 markup on any negreanu mtt bullet cause of his hendon mob/notoriety. Same as that clown hellmuth. Halo effect in motion

well this board did some research a few years back on the clown Hellmuth's tournament results and he had a lifetime triple digit ROI in WSOP NL tournaments, so 1.8 would be a decent discount, not that he'd ever need to sell his action

Helmuth is an outlier for sure in NL events.


Hellmuth isn't worth 1.8 today, except maybe in the ME or some $600 event.

DN is 8th of 47, 21 places pay, in the $50K NLHE. Still a bunch of short stacks that bought in close to the deadline, many of which will bust soon.

If he doesn't cash, he is definitely a losing player who can't beat low stakes.

Maybe I defend him because I was verbally abused by my parents and picked on in jr. high school, and get triggered by the way he gets picked on ITT.

The $50K NL actually pays 31 places, so they are getting near the bubble now, DN is 7/36.


Another cash in 50K, might break hearts again in this one, sitting 7/31 as last updated

Whatever happens they will fine something to say about him, even if they have to shut up for a few days.

If he wins I will eat crow.


Ladies and Germs, there's a new chipleader


What on earth is that Sean Perry video about?


6th of 13 at end of day. Seidel 5th. The places that don't make the final table make a little more than a mincash. 6th and higher start to make significantly more.

There is huge variance in these, but it is obvious he has good results. Not that many others playing all the high buyin events in all games. Not sure if PLO is his jam, but he seems to do better in mixed than PLO and better in PLO than NLHE. He could win this and whatever, and people will come up with stuff to criticize and make fun of, due to his endorsement contract, etc.

He seemed to have some argument with Sean Perry. Not sure what it was about.
