  1. sleep, and develop strategies on how to win the next stage. thats how they win. they don;t play golf in between.
    You know this because you have made millions playing poker or have absolutely no idea what you are talking about? Let me know which one it is.
  2. do you see hockey players playing golf before the cup finals?ball players playing shinny before the world series?no, you don't. Because that is not how professionals prepare for the major events in their sports my friend. Not ever. What I suggested is not an anomoly, is the precedent that has already been set in professional sport. Instead of blinding following daniel, ever think he could be wrong? Develop some independant thought for god's sake and stop being a sheep. Daniel may feel that his way to prepare is correct, and he may be right, but I am allowed to express an alternate opinion based up the strategies of other professionals in their respective games, stop immediately belittling others' opinions simply because you feel that DN's words are gold.
    Do hockey players play 14 hour Stanley Cup games?Do baseball players play 14 hour World Series games?Is poker a sport?The answer to all three of those is no. Nice try with the sports analogies that don't work.
  3. hes a pro poker playerits the WORLD SERIESnow is not the time for a break.
    Who are you to tell him what to do in life?If Daniel wants to golf, Daniel should golf. If Daniel wants to play poker, Daniel should play poker.
  4. I don't know who Ron Mexico is, so that means nothing to me.I only know things in terms of real normal humansCredibility in life does not come from the number of posts you have made in an online poker forum.
    Please tell me about these fake normal humans you have encountered.
  5. When I flew to London from Los Angeles area, I went through Atlanta.Business class was $1200If you aren't a good driver, don't even think of driving in America. We are the best drivers in the world, and we drive on the right side of the road, but Los Angeles Freeways aren't for the newbieAlso look into those around the world flights, you can stop in New York, Vegas, Los Angeles, and then hit up Tokyo, Bangkok, Athens, and Prague before going home.
    She can't roll the dice. She's business class.Business class?Big butt. You know, can't fly coach.
  6. So, with three of the four 10k buy ins done, what will the next one be? I'm assuming Fiddy can buy into the Main event on his own now.
    He is playing a bunch of smaller WSOP events that total $10,000 as his third buy in, and the WSOP Main Event as his fourth.
  7. I never said Hellmuth was the best but he is one of the 10 best players ever(in NLH). as far as Jordan being the best He isnt Wilt was better Chamberlain was better oscar robinson was better kareem was better next probally Jordan what you dont understand is you are living in the ESPN world and Jordan was ESPN's favorite so the keep telling you how great he was so when everybody hears it over and over they start believing it. As far as the ESPN poll of the beswt athlete of all time how can anyone believe Jordan is the best athlete of all time when he proved it wasn't true by failing misurably in baseball. A great athlete would have been able to ride his athlethic ability. BO Jackson Deion Sanders were both way better athletes Gretzky dominated his sport like no athlete with the exception of Ruth dominated there sport.Jordan the most OVERHYPED athlete of all time.Hellmuth the most OVERHYPED poker player of all time.Both the GREATEST marketing forces EVER.
    I don't know what's more absurd, you calling Jordan the fourth best player of all-time or someone else saying Hakeem is the second.
  8. With these teams it does feel like a decent bet - but looking back at the last 6 years - doesn't look so great. Only 3 of 7 series went past 5 games2004-05 San Antonio Spurs Detroit Pistons 4-3 2003-04 Detroit Pistons Los Angeles Lakers 4-1 2002-03 San Antonio Spurs New Jersey Nets 4-2 2001-02 Los Angeles Lakers New Jersey Nets 4-0 2000-01 Los Angeles Lakers Philadelphia 76ers 4-1 1999-00 Los Angeles Lakers Indiana Pacers 4-21998-99 San Antonio Spurs New York Knicks 4-1
    Yes, but do you remember how incredibly weak the East was in the late 90s and early 00s.
  9. Well normally I don't waste my time posting on this site with all of the lemmings and homophobic idiots, but when asked a question in a way that clearly is supposed to question my knowledge of the subject at hand how could I refuse...3 Main Event 1st places (80, 81, 97)2 Prelim Wins (2 to 7 / 7 Card Stud)Followed by a short list of finishes not even worth noting.We have a NL god here, best ever, noone will ever surpass the amazing 5 bracelets over 27 years!...Oh wait, I can think of 10 players off the top of my head who accomplished more in NL Holdem.
    So, you just left out the part about him winning the Super Bowl of Poker three times as well in your paper? A+
  10. Recently did a paper on Stu; seems like a lot of ppl are pulling this best NL tournament player out of there ***. He had some good wins, but a lot of players now have accomplishments just as good/better than his. What he was really amazing/god-like at was Gin Rummy, he never lost a tournament he entered unless he didn't show up, he played the worlds best at around 18 years old and crushed them, he couldn't find a game willing to play him. But yeah, seems like people are jumping on a train of thought when they are in fact not aware of his NL holdem accomplishments.
    Enlighten us.
  11. No matter what kind of winner you are you will never be the best with the attitude of a moderate winner or an excellent winner.To be the best you need to have mental toughness. You have to thrive off competition and want it more! If you think that you're getting tired think of Daniel playing over 20 hour sessions and you think your 6 hours at the computer is enough?You must thrive to be the best no matter what the circumstances. Become champions’ not moderate winners.
    And the Gipper speaks.
  12. Well say all you want about four all stars. The heat have probably the best bench money CAN buy as well as one of the three greatest coaches of all time against the failure that is FLIP. As good as the pistons are if they don't get over 100 they don't win. Excuses are the Key to life haha
    Dallas has a bench that is pretty much just as good.
  13. I love the abundance of poker made in this thread :icon_dance:and yes it hurts being a pistons fan but if the heat didnt make it with this line up they should have all been shot
    Yeah, because the Heat are the ones with four All-Stars ...
  14. Yeah, I'm not saying playing other games isn't good. I play Hold em' the most regularly but also play omaha and razz. Playing other games DOES help your overall poker games. I am just saying that it annoys me (just my opinion) that it seems like people are trying to play mixed games and games that are out of their poker ability just because pros say its what you "need" to do. Basically, it seems like a fad to play mixed games right now is all I'm saying. People sit down at a table and want everyone to look at them and think, "wow that guy must be really good. He knows how to play all those various games well enough to sit down in that game. When in reality, a lot of people aren't good enough to sit down in a mixed game and do well.
    So, Hold'em is not a fad and mixed games are? Really?
