My question is why did he only have a $3,200 bankroll? Maybe because he kept blowing fortunes he won in tournaments?

Re: \"I used to play 80/160 with $3,200 bankroll\" -- Negreanu
Not true. Dabniel has been playing tournament poker since at least 98 i believe. And he won a bracelt that year in pot limit holdem. That is worth at least a hundred thousand right there. Probably more like 200 or 300k but i'm being conservative. He has won many other tournaments or high finishes and has probably won close to a million dollars playing tournament poker before the last 2 years where he made the real big money. So where did all that money go that he won through the years? A good poker player is supposed increase a bankroll. Not lose a big bankroll.

He didn't say WHEN. Maybe it was before '98 then. Maybe it was when he was 12 years old. Maybe it was in a previous life.

Oh please. Now your just reachin to win an argument and not admit Daniel has had his struggles in live play through the years.
Just to prove you wrong he wrote about what he did when he came to vegas and what he did in toronto before vegas. He went back and forth between 10-20 and 20-40. I mean this is a ridulous argument to say he didn't lose the money he won in tournaments. It has been stated many places that he went broke. Even he stated it. He said ity was his old girlfriends fault and because he drank when he played. Bottom line is he lost playing live poker. All pros sometimes have issues outside of poker that may affect there game. But they didn't go broke. In fact they still increased there bankrol. Maybe not as much as they would have if not for outside interference. But increased it nonetheless. So why didn't daniel? |

Which means he made 2mil before winning the 4.5 mil yet he was broke. I wonder why?

Yeah million and he said he hasn't done in for hundreds of hours. Which means nothing. He has not logged even close to enough hours to have any idea what his hourly rate would be.
