Jesus, Negreanu is running REALLY badly this year

psyduck · #1 11-03-2005, 04:31 PM

With everything that happened to him at the WSOP and how his cash games are going (http://fullcontactpoker.com/poker-jo...amp;ucat=&) I wonder how he manages to remain tilt-free.

Seriously, being stuck a quarter of a million dollars after playing as well as possible = [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

That is not much in that game. In that blog entry he said most people bought in for $100K. So he lost 2.5 buy-ins in a no-limit game while getting his money in as a favorite. Happens all the time. He could continue to play well and lose another 20 buy-ins.

So when and where is this game going to be on TV?

Maybe he was just running REALLY well last year.

He won Cardplayer's Player of the year award and the similiar award for the WSOP.

Skilled player w/o a doubt, but he was certainly on a good run of cards.

The Big Game is mixed games most of which are limit, when they play NL there is a cap.

I think DN's losses aren't that big in that game, also I think most of us know what it's like to move to a new limit/game, there's an initiation period before you hit your comfort zone.

I do think it's exceptionally cool that he's posting all this in his blog.

P.S.
When I read the title of this thread I thought you were talking about two players and you had crappy grammar.

I think this one they are taping for TV is just NLHE.

That's what Daniel wrote in the blog.

Maybe this is better discussed in one of the strategy forums, but I don't really like Barry's call of daniel's check-raise all-in with the AcJx on the all club flop. He's getting 1.38-1, and is probably at LEAST a 2-1 dog against daniels range here. Lay it down barry.
