Default $4.5 million

After being a "big favorite," Daniel ended up losing his first $500,000 HU match to BarryG. What happens if Barry continues his luckbox ways and wins all 9 (or is it ten?) HU matches?

Is Daniel really prepared to give $4.5 million to Barry? Can he afford that?

He has committed to all nine matches so I guess its safe to assume that he can afford that. I, however, don't see him losing all nine. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Me neither. I think this first match was just an aborigine and Daniel will come back strong in the next match.

Was that word supposed to be "aberration?"

did anyone else read dan's blog where it almost comes off like he's trying to goad barry into playing stud again?

he says that while he could decline a re-match in that event, that he wouldn't and that he hopes Barry chooses it again.

i have to admit this match-up intrigues the hell out of me.

i think dan's in a bit worse shape than most of you. no trouble of getting swept of course, but he could lose 5 or 6 of 9 for sure.

I think he's trying to create a little dysentery among the ranks.

Neither of these 2 have a big advantage over the other. How the cards end up being distributed is really going to determine the results more than anything else.

I doubt Daniel is risking as dollar. Steve wynn is supplying the money for the publicity. Daniel probably has some kind of deal like if he wins he getsa a piece and if he loses its on Steve. Just a guess but probably something like that. Yet Daniel calls out David and Mason trying to say there chickens. While he is not risking his own money. Whose the real chicken? He talks big with Steve Wynn's money lol.
