ok, i am kind of worried. what if, him and BG both bust out early every tourney and play in this match and BG wins them all. this is obviously a very pessimistic view but wouldnt that basically leave DN in a big hole? or can he quit before any of that happens? I am rooting very hard for him to have things pick up for him but dang this sure is a tough week.

i will say its very very unlikely, but stranger things have happened. im not trying to bring a negative vibe or anything.

Maybe Daniel has lost his drive to do well in tournaments (at least the small ones) just because of the sort of money that can be made playing HU at the Wynn. 0-3 so far and the confidence is certainly not getting any better. Maybe he does not care and is not "worried" to put his money in draws. It cant all be bad luck...Come on DN, do well to get at shot at the bracelets at least...

I think he is 1 for 4.

this has been discussed at length elsewhere.he's being paid, but not staked, for the matches.if you've ever seen prop offers on poker sites, it's the same deal to an extent, just with a salary instead of hourly wages.

Yeah, DN's o-4 but I wouldn't even begin to worry about it yet. Most of the pros haven't done well...but there are three at that NL final table

I've played three tournaments and haven't had a chance. No, there was nothing I could do to fade getting knocked out early. The $1500 buyin events start you with just 1500 in chips, if you don't win any hands you are out. It's that simple. The only hand I won today was a total bluff. I just never had the best hand on the river. That'll change... As for my heads up matches, I'm 1-4 right now, but if I win my next match I'll still be up $100,000. In total I'm only down $400,000.
