A Daniel Negreanu quote:

From today's blog:

"Had I known how Barry was going to play in the PLO heads up match, I never would have played him in stud again. That was a stupid decision on my part and it cost me half a million. Oh well, live and learn."

Talk amongst yourselves.

Hm, interesting how it changed from 'I'm getting hit in the face with the deck & getting lucky' to Barry plays PLO like crap in very short order...

Daniel has already said stud is Barry's best game. Why he played him twice is beyond me.

Ego.

Barry doesnt play heads-up, and Daniel had studied heads-up, and wanted to beat Barry at his "best" game.

DN is surprisingly results oriented for someone at such a high level.

I am pretty sure I just read they are playing stud again for the third time!! Is this a different stud game????

I believe it's Stud8 this time.

I'm lookinf forward to the Paul Phillips challenge match in Triple Draw if they play. On his blog, Paul said 100k is a bit much to risk short term.

I don't remember it that way. He may have said it was one of his bets games but he was referring to stud other than a heapds up match where he felt barry didn't understand headup stud as well. I also remember him saying PLO barry would be the biggest favorite out of all the matches.
