Guest Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Daniel was eliminated on Day 2 of the 2005 Five Diamond World Poker Classic. As Daniel continues to lose and lose and lose, the pressure with each passing tournament could eventually become downright unbearable.Think about it - Daniel finishes the year with a 0-15 tournament record. The ability to win poker tournaments directly impacts Daniel's other endorsement and business undertakings. Though a poker player like Daniel will rarely admit it, the guy could be losing sleep at night because of his poker play so far this year, with current tournament winnings since January at a paltry $70,390.

I'm taking my number from a few articles that I've read by tournament pros. Chip Jett is the name that immediately comes to mind, but I'm sure others have written the same.

pokerplayer24 0 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Cashing 5% of the time as a tournament pro would be awful. Cashing 1:5 might be wat he meant.I doubt DN is to worried about his off poker year. Who hasnt gone on a 0-15 slide. If you play enough its going to happen. Also i'm sure he still made a ton of $ this year just via endorsements and cash gaming. Link to post Share on other sites

donkboat 0 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Daniel did have a slow year ... but don't we all ... most of us can hardly put together a good run on the net for a week ... He had one of the best runs in poker history and he will continue to amaze me with his stellar laydowns and amazing personality ...donkboat 2 7 Link to post Share on other sites
