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

The poker world did exist before the WPT. Daniel has only been successful as a tournament player recently.

He said in the same interview, that he has made $1 million in the "big game", and Im pretty sure he made decent money in the lower cash game before that.

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?

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.

Noway!. He was saying all he had to his name was $3200 and playing 80-160. This is one of the reasons he has always been broke. Because he consistently plays over his head. Like most tourney players. They win a big tourney and give it to the big players like Barry G. and Chip.

I think Negreanu was pretty clearly saying that all he could afford to lose is $3,200 and that if he lost that, he couldn't play 80-160 anymore because he wouldn't be able to buy into it...

[/ QUOTE ]

Exactly what I think too. I wonder if he reads this and comments is, he did comment other people writing about him [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

Wha-wha-wha-what?

[/ QUOTE ]

In http://video.cardplayer.com:8080/vid.../061205_10.wmv he talks about people on-line posting about his bankroll.

[/ QUOTE ]

That doesn't make your statement intelligible.

Just figured since you're posting on a message board, where the idea is for people to read and respond to what you write... Apparently, I have the wrong idea.

Well the point is his bankroll is now ridiculous. Thats the bottom. Whether he was broke or not. He's rich as hell now
