Mr.calling Station

[-WZR- 0]

the more i watch high stakes, the more i lose respect for daniel's game. it's clear that he goes on tilt in both season's, but I just don't get why he's such a calling station. let's take the big hand from this week's show vs. eli. can he really believe he's fighting for a chop at this point in time? everytime he's been sick to himself with a river card, someone else bets and he calls showing the worst hand. i just don't get it.

He laid down some pretty big hands to the less experienced guys before he took that beat to Gus, but he has been paying off the more 'well known' people. I guess Amnon and corey were shaking and the camera didn't pick it up

I respect him for going with his origonal reads. Which he knows are right if someone doesnt hit a 2 outer on him.

personally, i felt a bit better knowing that even a player with as much talent and success as DN can go on tilt and make bad plays. as a fan of his it was painful--but instructive--to watch.

Let me guess your the next WSOP winner right? Who are you to judge? Calling station? Get your facts straight before you talk out of your ***. Daniel called 35 suited preflop because he puts Eli on bigger cards, he flopped the nuts and you call him a calling station for checking the river and just calling. What kind of ****ing idiot are you? Daniel is a great player and if anything checking the river was a great move. You act like you are the world champion commenting Daniel's play like that. I bet he just sits there reading your post and laughs to himself saying these guys have no idea. Go play your .10/.20 limit game homo.

Guys, its not the end of the world if DN misplayed a few hands. Noone plays perfectly and Daniel is no exception. He has leaks in his game....but so does EVERYONE else in the world. Its just magnified more when you play on television.

I think it just shows that even how much of a great player Daniel Negreanu is... He could be even better. It also shows that these "pros" are human and are prone to huge tilts. But I dunno how you could lose respect to someone with the amount of success he's had.

After watching this past episode, I also thought that DN was on tilt and became a calling station. Then I realized that they only show selected hands, thus we perhaps don't see situations where Daniel calls down with 3rd pair and his hand was good. Also, DN's game relies a lot on his post flop skills. He does not have a strict standard of starting hands since he feels that he has a good edge post flop. This means that he will often be put in situations where he has to make tough calls. And a decent number of times, he's wrong and it so happens that the HSP producers only show us the times that he's wrong.

You might wanna look into that. I just ate some chips without benefit of a drink and I know how devestating it can be. Just hang tough and you'll make it through.

Are we going to have to explain yet again what "cold decked" means? Most mis-used phrase in poker.There have been a lot of hands on this HSP where DN has had the nuts or near nuts on the flop or turn and been outdrawn on the river. The problem has been that he repeatedly calls on the river "knowing" that he's been outdrawn. He's lost an awful lot of money making crying calls on the river. Now this game is of course played at a different level than your average 1/2 NL casino table. His opponents obviously don't know that Daniel flopped the nuts. They're capable of making big bluffs. Still after seeing DN call them down repeatedly he'd have to start thinking that they really do have the one hand that beats him, they really did catch a one or two outer against him. Now I'm not saying DN should make those laydowns. I'm not saying I could (I know I couldn't). And of course DN know Gus, Eli, etc much better than I do. And sure he's getting awfully unlucky to get into those situations repeatedly. But to make a number of questionable calls like that you have to wonder if he's steaming.

Well, in that hand against Elezra where Daniel flopped the straight, I had the impression that Daniel put him on a full house on the river knowing he is beat, and still called the 60K with about 2.5:1 pot odds. But then, Eli made some crazy plays in that session maybe Daniel thought there was some chance, Eli just had an overpair?I don't know what Daniel was thinking, it did seem like a bad call, he clearly was frustrated at this point, maybe that kept him from reasonably evaluating his play a bit.edit: To call DN a "calling station" because of a couple bad calls is ridiculous, do you even know what that expression means, OP?
