Re: Daniel N. lacks pure poker skills?
Reading this thread makes my eyes bleed. I don't know who is more stupid SplawnDarts or Salazar.
Just general thoughts.
Daniel is probably a loser in the big game, but I have no idea ,outside of gossip.
Daniel is a very good NLHE tournament player.
Daniel made some unequivocally horrible plays in HSP.
Daniel would probably be a loser in big online cash games.
Daniel's faith has very little to do with his intelligence, and Salazar bringing Christianity and faith into this discussion is stupid and irrelevant.

If anything, it seems Daniel's biggest fault is his ego, that is in allowing himself to be put in gambling situations that are -EV for him. It seems that except for (maybe) Benyamine, Ivey, Antonius every other gambler/poker player has games he is better at and games he is worse at, and smartly chooses to not risk large portions of their bankroll at the latter.

Most losers at HSNL lose because of ego. People edge is so small that tilt control and game selection are so important. Also Benyamine seems to be in the same boat as DN in this respect Benyamine by all accounts is not a good online NLHE player for the stakes he plays.
Also SplawnDarts please never use this argument ever

Is he better than you at every commonly played form of poker?

This is news, views and gossip people are just giving the latter. Also FWIW I believe I am a better online SNG player than DN. He is a better poker player and if he choose to learn SNGs he could be become better, but right now he isn't.
