I remember reading a few of DN's blogs where he was stuck or up as much as a million in a session, but 20 million is just a sick run of cards if thats indeed true. Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 68 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 http://www.tonygpoker.com/2006/07/wsop-500...imit-event.html"After the first round, I have about the same as my starting stack. I really haven’t has any opportunities. I played two queens, I flat called before the flop, and on a flop of 2 4 7, I laid the queens down, and the guy shows me deuce seven for 2 pair. I must be playing pretty well to lay down two queens on that board. I only lost 175 on the hand."Um no you're not playing pretty well if you let 72 beat QQ. Link to post Share on other sites
Waffles2003 1 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 he is up to 20M, ok, but who did he take the $$ from? Ivey, Doyle? Link to post Share on other sites

grocery_mony 8 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 good thing daniel has been busy with going deep in tourneys! highly doubt 20 million in a week is possible unless the stakes have been raised to like 50k/100k Link to post Share on other sites

simo_8ball 0 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 They play 4k/8k limit, but I thought they also played NL with a 100k cap at times. It's hard to believe there could be a 20mil win in a week playing limit, but if it's NL (with a few fish from the WSOP) then I could understand it. Link to post Share on other sites
sirch1 0 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 you should be smacked around a bit then buried in a hole with your mouth duct taped so you can not spew ignorance to the rest of the world anymoreIf they have so much money how come they get a bunch of people to start bankrolls to play Andy Beal. why cut down on your profit when you have the the cash for it?A year ago DN said that we was stuck 1.3 million in the game annd his bankroll couldnt handle it. Now imagine 15 more people losign this much in the big game in a wee. Link to post Share on other sites

Bgfoot 0 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 20 million is not impossible. Doyle, Ivey, Reese, they are not the wealthiest in the game. During the WSOP a lot of big money comes to Vegas just for the cash games.Something else big is going on at Bellagio also. Micheal Jordan and a lot of NBA affilates have been there all week, maybe deal making for the 2007 All-Star, it is in Vegas next year Link to post Share on other sites
