Negreanu LeadingPosted 1 minute ago by donpeters"There's a lot more there than there was before," said Daniel Negreanu to our reporter who was counting his stack. We eyeballed it at around 210,000 and Negreanu informed us that he cracked Saar Wilf's pocket aces to get the chips.According to Negreanu, Wilf raised and Negreanu flatted with the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. The flop came {K-}{9-}{9-} and Wilf fired. Negreanu called. Wilf then barreled the blank turn and blank river, to which Negreanu called off."Easy game," he said.

Daniel said on Twitter:

@TexDolly I'll bet the winner of the 25k 6 max event is under 35 and I'll lay 3-2 odds.

Being 35, Daniel is betting against himself and a lot of other good players.Shouldn't Daniel be betting that the winner of the $25,000 six handed event is under 36 and lay 3-2 odds to give himself a bigger incentive to win?

Daniel said on Twitter:

@TexDolly ok then, I'll pick 5 guys under 35 and you can have 5 guys over 35 and I'll lay 1.20

But, Daniel, what about guys, like you, who are 35. Don't you want to include yourself in the bet?

Daniel's doing great so far.It's too bad that he didn't include himself in his side of the bet.

Imagine if we lived in a world where you hadn't already made that point multiple times and received responses on it. Or even if we lived in a world where having the chip lead on day one did not guarantee that you win a tournament.What's that? We do live in such a world? Wow.

I just wanted to rub it in so that Daniel might see it, in case he does well or wins, as an incentive to include himself in future bets.

Yes, cause if he wins the tournament he will instantly feel bad when he sees that DCJ001 was correct about a wager.Now I understand.Thank you for clarifying.

Daniel has taken a lot of crap lately (some of it perhaps somewhat deserved) so it would be great to see him ship this. GL sir.

Potential of a fun final table...Daniel, Barry, Bonomo and Mortensen is what I am hoping for..An epic 10 hour heads up battle with Daniel and Barry would be nice.
