Re: \"I used to play 80/160 with $3,200 bankroll\" -- Negreanu
Negeranu's point was that he played way over his head relative to prevailing wisdom.
Bankroll is a fluid concept because if memory serves me right, I remember how DN blew his Toronto built bankroll a few times when he first went to Vegas. He would then put together a new bankroll by starting over back in Toronto. The point is that he was taking shots at big games without the bankroll. He was not buying in for $3200 out of some bigger bankroll. Personally, my poker bankroll isn't all that big but I have much money in reserve to reload it if needed. So what is my bankroll??? 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 ]
My question is why did he only have a $3,200 bankroll? Maybe because he kept blowing fortunes he won in tournaments? [/ QUOTE ] He didn't say he did it last year did he? The poker world did exist before the WPT. Daniel has only been successful as a tournament player recently.

No matter what he ment a quote should be a quote and not a "quote" what the person that heard it think he ment. He never said the world "bankroll".

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.
