are these still going on. it seems like there hasn't been any news of them since summer.

All of his opponents have chickened out because they know they do not have a chance to win. For their own good, they have come to realize the thruth that he simply is too good for them in any form of poker.

Funny co-incidence i was just thinking the exact same thing, and was going to post same question.

i still see the page ad in cardplayer for it, so i assume he'll still take on any comers...

I'd love to see Jordan Berkowitz play him.

10-04-2005, 02:38 PM
Does he even play poker anymore?

He hasn't done a whole lot in a while; he's been getting married and stuff. They're probably pick up again this month.

I think Phil Ivey asked him the same thing.

He mentioned his challenge matches are resuming early October, so any day. He still has a bunch with Greenstien and a bunch in the pipeline. Should be good to follow.

Didn't know you knew how to type mushu. Must be nice to be the dog of an international poker sensation. Why hasn't he played any meaningful poker in the last 4 mos (ex the WSOP debacle)?

He's capatalizing on other things in life as well, being poker's number 1 or 2 star he does a lot of tv shows and interviews all over the place. Also doing his DVD which he finished recently. He's doing things like Hellmuth and making big $ off the business side of poker.

You seem a little bitter Mushu, is he not feeding you the finest Alpo has to offer?

If I was Daniel N and I found out some guy has a semi gimmick account named after my dog, I would be so [censored] creeped out.


But after that I'd go buy a bunch of fake leather jakes for homeless gay prostitues.

i thought he was gay.

10-05-2005, 03:51 AM
I still think he is. he comes off as soo exceedingly homosexual.

oh, and he's not one of the two top poker players in the world.

Can't blame him for capitalizing on it now. I'm sure he'll
be playing a lot more when the poker fad dies out in a couple years, as it surely will.

You mean Mushu or whatever is Daniel's dogs name? Motherfuck, I was creeped out by the guy BEFORE I knew this.

why not cash in on the fame now? the opportunity will fade in a while, but he will be able to play poker for years and years to come..... or maybe hell find out about mushu and be to sick to play

I believe the only set he lost was against Barry Greenstein. He had won the other 14 sets last time I checked. Up $4 million or something.
