Re: can negreanu really beat live nl cash games w/ his eyes closed?
 

I dont know about Wynn 5/10 game but he would stand no chance at all at any level online from 0.01$/0.02$NL to 5$/10$NL.

I hate to be a nit, but shouldn't this go in the WPT forum? I don't particularly care if DN can beat a 5/10$ game with his eyes closed.

Negreanu is blowing smoke here. There is no way for him to prove his claim. There is also no way to disprove his claim. But there is no requirement to disprove his claim. He opened his mouth and as far as I am concerned put his foot in it. He is really sounding like a small minded braggard with this claim. He is basically saying that the players in the 5-10 HLH game are big dopes and/or that he is so skillful that there is noone in that game that has a chance of taking his money. He rally sounds like a silly little boy with this claim.

Vince I think you forget how unique it is that DN basically blurts out his actual thoughts into a blog for all to see. He probably said this because it genuinely ocurred to him and he doesn't hold anything back. I am not saying I agree with him all the time but there is something I respect about it and i think is representative of the brash attitude i think all great poker players should have.

"Young" Mr. Doyle Brunson claims the same thing.

It is worthwhile, if for nothing else to show that that in limit you play your own cards, while in NL, you play your opponents cards.

Also, it gives all of us inspiration to start picking up more loose pots by reading hands better.
