ok..i guess i'm alittle behind. If this topic has been discussed already elsewhere..i apologize.

Daniel brought to our attention the article on poker newshttp://www.pokernews.com/news/2006/9/two-million-questions-one.htmDoes anyone know the two authors of this 3 part article? My question is, why in the world would 2 people take all the time and energy to write such an indepth article?. Its got more jargons than a physics paper. No real solid answers from the officials. And it looks like their up coming 3rd part will most likely be an explanation of "staff error"? on maybe during the chip off?Is it me or does it smell like its a cover up to a more sinister circumstance that Harrahs does no

I start a thread to Thank Daniel for this website and somehow we are now talking about a guy named Ron Canada!!! HAHAHAHA...That's what I love about this site. You start talking about something as simple as a thank you and you end up analyzing the life of BOB and I gues one HOT SHEEP.

I don't think anyone's thank you for while. I'm sure it costs you a good nickel. But thanks again for making this website.

I'm lucky I have a wife and son who understands. The poker lifestyle is a terrible one. Most women cannot handle it. You must find one that really loves you and take the good with the bad. And always remember to spend at least ONE whole days of the weak with her. If you can't get away ONE Whole day away from poker per week...then you are an addict. In trouble.

Ok..pretty funny stuff but I can't believe that you were not in conversation as much as you posted. I'm sure you gave them 3 allot jabs. Or has the married life left us with a kindler, gentler, more reserved Daniel?

I guess if we base this vote on Personality the percentages wouldn't change either!!Duke maybe has a lead on looks? Nope.As a better dresser? Nope.So where does Duke have a lead on Jen?Oh I got it. She's a better flirt.

Granted he has 9 bracelets but this video is a joke. Purely a Helmuth cashing in on his fame. For on thing, there is no secrets revealed. You are much better buying books on poker. Now I understand why he is the most disrepected good poker player around. I think the problem with this dvd is that is geared toward novice players and give only enough information to be a knowledgeable player. But if you are interested to make poker a living then there is much more information people need to learn that Phil does not reveal.

Personally, I enjoy reading the controversy, gossip and bickering that goes on in forums. As long as its done without any foul language or inappropriate attacks. Without the bickering, it can get a little boring. I even enjoy some of the arrogance I read. We are not text books. We are a community. So lets all act like a community and have controversy and bickering.

Dutch, for some reason you seem a little defensive. hmmmmm. I believe you didnt' get the point of the article. Let me shed some light.Daniel, wrote the article because he is as perplexed as most of us why some Asians do so well in the tournments. The reason behind it is pretty much anyone's guess. If you look at the numer of Asian entrants in Major $10,000 buy in tournaments the number of asians are small compared to the field. Like the last WPT in Tunica. Maybe 30-40 were Asian Males out of 512. that's less than 10%. And yet 2 of them find themselves at the final table. With a few threatening

WE NEED MORE ANGER AND SARCASM IN PEOPLE'S POST. Your post was too nice and polite. We need more stuff to laugh at and redicule so we can put our 2 cents in because well...that's all we have. is 2 cents left.I FORGIVE YOU SINCE ITS YOUR FIRST POST BUT LATER..PUT SOME WEIRD STUFF ON TO ENTERTAIN US!!!!! LOL

30% of Americans have donated some kind of financial aid to the Tsunami Relief. I would like to see wha the percentage is for poker players. I know..I know..this thing is not going to be accurate.

I Mostly play on Party poker. And I've been doing qutie well. I had no interest switching to PokerStars until tonight.I am watching the Tsunami Relief Concert and PokerStars just donated $400,000. WOW!!Someone in the poker community shows that poker players are human too.I"m going to give PokerSTars a try now.Anyone know if there was any other poker site, poker room or other poker people that have shown humanity that the poker world are not made up of mostly uncaring people?

I really like the ideal of all these book reveiws by Daniel. Without preaching and telling people to read and learn all you can, he shows us. We see how enthusiastic he is on reading othere people's material and the readers may start to think "Hey..maybe i'll give the book reading thing a try too!!"Here's the number one player in the world reading other people's material. hmmmmm hint hint :think:

Most no limit games in casino, the blinds are smaller than a 4-8 game but the betting will average more than a 1020. My winning percentage is at 90% per session. Much higher than a ring game. Most no-limit games, the betting is done pre-flop or after the flop. The question is for a seasoned pro. I don't think you need to be a seasoned pro to really find that no-limit is the better game for the long term success.

Thanx for the link. I loved the site.As a ping pong fan..I thought this one was great.http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/pingpong.phpthis one is crazy..you got to check out the mind reader one..wow.http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/mind.php

I definitely do not condone what Josh said to David after being knocked out. The only thing that I found unappropriate was calling Raymer an A-hole. He could have just said.."Take him Down David". And that would have been fine. But it seems to me, at least he knows that he made a mistake. And he'll have to live with it for quite a while. I believe that is punishment enough. We all have had bad beats in poker. We all experienced the anger that accompanys it. But to get to the point of calling someone an A-hole is uncalled for. The Seahawks just beat the Cardinals in Football. Are the Cardinals

I've seen other poker people website and all about poker and their good or bad beats. Its his last entry that drives me to come back and be a fan.Today Reggie White died. Its all over the news. His powess on the field got him great recognition. But its his greatness off the field that got him admiration and respect. Lets all remember that his excellence on the football field must come first.Well Daniel, no matter what the future holds, you'll always be remember as one of the "Greats" that's ever played poker. When you die, or walk away from poker, what will you be remembered for?When Doyle die

Cool..Our Man will come on live!!! 5-6 pm..excellent!! ummm the post said he wrot it 7 pm..so what day are you coming on Daniel? or did I miss it already. lol..ok..nevermind..just read in the front page..he be on tomorrow the 27th.

Currently, a PPT (Professional Poker Tour) has been formed. Our Man, Daniel is a member of the PPT Committee. Members of the Committee have the power to put individuals on the PPT to play for 5 million dollars annually. Personally, I'm all for the PPT. However, its a step toward trying to make poker "appear" like a sport. Similar to the PGA.It's at this junction in time and history that has me concerned. For 10 years, I played poker to pay my bills. And for ten years, I've hated it. In the beginning, I saw all wonders and glamour and competition it attracts us. However, I also saw the destruct

That's not so funny of a story. The guy with the KJ was ME!!!!!!just kidding...lol

ok..i'm still waiting for the thing i need to know...

I think next weeks episode will be Poker Player Sex Secrets Revealed!!!Wait a minute, there poker players having sex somwhere??? hmmmm...that's something new.

Maybe Daniel should come online and use the chat thing in this forum for once. Well, he's on the Professional Poker Tour Committee. Maybe he's busy scrutinizing and giving each player he nominates careful thought. or maybe not. ..lol

Quote from Daniel in cardplayer latest"As I said, I was feeling frisky once again and couldn’t wait to tangle with the chip man. With the blinds now at $1,000-$2,000 with a $300 ante, I raised to $5,000 from first position with the 7 4. I know, I know, the books tell you to fold those hands. I guess I should read one of them, eventually"I for one believe most of the poker books are dinosaurs. The core of them books are still solid but a twist in old strategy is needed. And we need new books to come out.So, i'm on the water monster and I happened to notice the Brad Daugherty and Tom Mcevoy book
