  1. *shrug* Guy who put in too much is stupid. As Canada Bill Jones said, its immoral to let a sucker keep his money. Even if its true, I have no problem with it. Fck him

    I will be the first to say this, I am -- WAS -- A HUGE Daniel Negreanu fan until I witnessed something that made me sick to my stomach. This occurred on Day 3 of the Main Event of the 2006 World Series of Poker. Daniel was sitting at Table 56, just along the isle, to his right my a good friend of mine MIKE who I had been watching since I busted on Day 2. ---Daniel, you remember me, the one in the basketball jersey that you spoke with once the break started. ---I was on the rail watching the action. The blinds were $1,200 and $2,400 with a $300 ante and 11 minutes left in the level. At this point Daniel had approximately $30,000 in chips or so after losing a lot of his stack prior to coming to the table. The key here is I was watching this table for hours. This is what occurred ---Daniel was on the button, his chip stack was COMPLETELY made up of black chips...He had NOTHING but $100 black chips to start the hand. Everyone folded to Daniel, who decided to push. Mike in the small blind folded his hand (he had put out one yellow worth $1,000 and two black), the big blind after much comtemplation decided to fold. However, I noticed that the big blind had put out too many chips!!! Instead of two yellow and four black (which would have been $2,400, he put out FOUR yellow and four black, worth $4,400). I immediately noticed this and prior to the next hand, alerted MIke of what had happened. The Dealer gave the chips to Daniel. Mike then told the big blind what had happened who alerted the dealer. MIke also directly told Daniel what had happened, pointing out that he had 5 yellow instead of 3 which he should have had. Daniel then took the 5 yellow and hid them to the side of his stack until the next hand was dealt. As this was going on, the break was nearing. After 4 MORE hands, and Daniel having won a couple of pots, he said "I'll get the floorman". He did that, knowing that he had waited enough hands and won a couple of more small pots, collecting the additional yellow, that there was no way they would be able to give the guy his chips back. All the while, Daniel looks like the good guy.I know you were crippled in chips at that point Daniel, but what you did was wrong!!!! Absolutely wrong and classless!! I have always admired and respected your game, and even marveled at the way you are able to read players, but that was all thrown out the window when you STOLE $2,000 in chips at the Main Event of the World Series of Poker. You looked directly at me when I was telling everyone what was going on. You looked pissed....I hope that you were not pissed that someone would catch what you did, but just pissed that someone would actually speak up.I know you will claim you had no idea, which is a total crock of crap, but hey.....whatever helps you sleep at night.I hope you are man enough to admit what you did, and hope others will accept that in the heat of the moment you made a bad choice. I -- and everyone else--- would respect you again, at least somewhat. A Former Huge Fan.....Harvey D.
  2. This does involve me in a big way. I am a poker player who makes my living playing poker. In my opinion, what these players are doing with this lawsuit with have a negative impact on the poker world. Why shouldn't I voice my opinion? The WPT isn't the enemy here, it's the seven players making the lawsuit. If they genuinely wanted to do "what's best" for the poker players out there, maybe THEY should have asked the poker players if this is a war they wanted to fight? Maybe they should have consulted with me and the others, asking if we'd either like to be a part of it, or even ask for our opinions on what this will do to poker. They didn't. Instead, they appointed themselves "leaders of the players movement" without a vote, or without even listening to the public.
    Gotta concur with daniel here. It's almost as if these 7 decided to be martyrs without asking any of the affected if that's what they wanted. Also, in all of Raymers attacks on Daniel he never actaully refutes the fact that the timing of this lawsuit could not be worse. From what I read he basically says, "Daniel is not a lawyer, therefore he is talking out of his arse and cannot bring up any valid points." Well, gotta agree with Daniel when he says that this view is very close minded.It doesn't take a lawyer to tell you that this thing could get really ugly really fast.ps i hope that Daniel gets to knock raymer around in another heads up duel sometime soon. :lol:jen harman, i love you btw.
  3. That's like 8 words, and 3 ill-formed sentences. Stop confusing us with your enlightening social commentaries.
    i recon i say what ever the hell i wanna say frontwise sidewise and back wise. so if you wanna go comparin grammer i say what evs and then i say fine.
  4. Duke's a very good player. She's a legitimate pro. If you don't want her to win, then I have two words for you: Allen Cunningham. or prahlad friedman. or jeffery lisandro. Lisandro is a beast. He's my pick.I'll cheer for Duke later on though in the name of a player i've heard of winning the ME

    Sit Annie Duke down in the Big Game at Bellagio/Venetian and come tell us what happens.
    Who are you refuting? I've never heard anyone say that she would beat the big game.
  5. Yea, I've always liked Raymer, think he is a class act.I do think, though, that this lawsuit will create enemies in the poker community.If they win and there is a better contract, then people like DN will gain without having risked anything, while Raymer etc. will have risked alot to get what they think is a better deal for the players. Wether it is or not isn't the point.The animosity will last for a long time, mark my words.Only Phil Helmuth will be above the fray and will continue to be the true face of poker.
    lol. Raymer is such a moron. If he's looking to gather support for his lawsuit then attacking the most popular name in poker is probably a bad idea. Even if his gripes with Daniel were legitimate (I really don't know if they are or not i'm not a lawyer) the best way to handle would be to talk to him personally. Bitching at an online poker table makes him look unprofessional. He says, "tool" and now when i think raymer the phrase "****** bag" comes to mind
