Sonicpb 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 What do you know, a good player logs in a win! All you nay-sayers that were freaking out so much over the last two days need to chillax. DN came through. I'm not saying that his loss over the other two days was small, but I hope this win helps you see a little bit more long term. DN didn't go into the third game completely scared that he was going to log another looser and be broke otherwise he would have done just that. He did exactly what he said he was going to do in the post from the second day: "There is just nothing you can really do about getting unlucky other than holding your head high and focusing on the fact that you played well." I think he did just that and went into this game focussed and determined that he would play well again. Without that mental edge I don't know if we would be reading a story about winning nearly a half a million dollars right now. Congradulations Daniel. Link to post Share on other sites
Lee2k 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Yeah I want to say congats to daniel , sounds like the final day was a big one and you didnt have an unlucky break (or atleast not too many) keep up the good work Link to post Share on other sites
blueodum 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I was amazed at all the "sky is falling" talk after Day 2 from various posters.Are they really that results-oriented? It can't speak well for their own poker games. Link to post Share on other sites

dreamcaster 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I'm looking forward to seeing this show on GSN. Based on the way Daniel wrote about the event, the taped footage must be some of the best out there.Just imagine the look on Antonio's face after he takes his second beat in a game that is expensive for him. Of the Phil blowups. That should be classic.Great three blogs daniel! Link to post Share on other sites
crowTrobot 2 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 what is GSN? not a network i get apparently, unless it's same as fox sports. Link to post Share on other sites

dammit007 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 What's with putting these poker shows on the GSN? I don't understand why ESPN hasn't developed a weekly show that would air when the WSOP isn't on. It would be cool to have poker on every Tuesday night on ESPN with different formats like this "high-limit" event.I want poker. I want it on channels I get. And I want it now!Sounds pretty whiny but I can't get enough of TV poker, especially when DN is winning and losing hundreds of thousands of HIS OWN MONEY on TV. How fun is that!

chrozzo 19 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Nice job DN! Maybe some ppl in here will get off your back now, hehe. I loved haering about the Adventures of hil, anytime he loses it makes for good television. And as for him losing a lot of his money, what goes around comes around! Link to post Share on other sites
sniper6121 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Congrats Daniel I cant wait till Jan 16th to watch it on GSN glad I have cable haha Link to post Share on other sites
Fanatikk 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Congrats Daniel on stopping the bleeding.I've been wondering when they were going to start televising cash games. It just seems they can be way more entertaining for a few reasons.1. Lotsa of money..and chips represent real money.2. The best players at every seat(as opposed to a tourney where there might be one or two or none).3. More aggresive playing style, lost a of postflop play.Couple questions.Did Ivey play?Why did all the guys go after Hellmuth? Does he annoy the other pros as much as the general population?First post btw. Big Fan, Danny. Keep sharp, hopefully things will turn around on the tourney front. Link to post Share on other sites
DanielNegreanu 141 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 The players attack Phil because it's all about money. Push Phil's buttons a little bit and he gets steamed up. Then he starts playing horribly and giving his money away. All of the other players were regular cash game players and know Phil's weaknessess'. That, and the fact that Phil makes himself the target for ridicule because of the things that come out of his mouth. He was the 8th best player at the table, but was telling everybody how he was going to crush them, etc. Link to post Share on other sites
Tinysmurf93 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I laugh whenever I watch Phil play on T.V. and he gets so angry at himself. It seems like he is about to cry. Unfotunately I am only 17 so I can't really play with him. :cry: Link to post Share on other sites
cabbage 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Phil definately adds a needed ingredient ...he plays the loser role just as well or even better than Matasow.Would love to see more of Gus Hansen on these shows?..but I hear some what of a recluse...am i wrong..

typesick 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Ummm... 8th best Hold 'Em player at the table? What a joke... Link to post Share on other sites
DaBruins 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Ummm... 8th best Hold 'Em player at the table? What a joke...who said anything about Hold 'em? Although Phil H. would still probably be outside of my top 8 hold em players in cash games based on what we've read. Link to post Share on other sites
blueodum 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Hold Em is what they were playing.And yes, PH is the worst player at that table, probably by a good margin. He doesn't play high stakes cash games (If he did he'd go broke). Link to post Share on other sites
theresa113 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 I really wish I could get GSN. I went to their site a while ago. I must have registered on the site, I have no clue why. They sent me a happy birthday email. Kind of funny, since I can't see any of their programming.Anyway, I hope GSN is smart enoght to put their poker shows on DVD. I know I would buy it.Or, maybe they can talk to Brighthouse in Central Florida and get Brighthouse to start airing their channel. I can think of lots of channels I will be more than willing to give up. Like, who watches the Animal Channel anyway? Anyway, I am going to send a letter to my cable company right now instead of complaining on a forum. Link to post Share on other sites
theresa113 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Hey... I sent an email to Bright House right from their site. I am encouraging other Central Floridians to do the same. I want my GSN! Poker programming rules! Link to post Share on other sites
