Daniel Negreanu - Great Insider Gossip

[BostonMetro]

Daniel Negreanu is one of the great gamblers of our time. He offered to play anyone for up to $10 million dollars head-up in any game (about ten different games twice). He willingly got beat out of a million dollars playing seven-card stud (which he is terrible at) against Barry Greenstein. He played (and lost big... and admitted it) the best LHE players online HU at his poker site because he believed in it. He lost a million dollars playing high stakes golf even though he probably couldn't shoot under 100 tomorrow. He lost a million in the big game and admitted it in his blog, even swallowing his pride saying that he's afraid to play that high anymore. He liberally backs players he believes in. He writes and even films a [censored] blog to let people see what his life is like. He's so weird that you know he's not just making that blog for the money aspect. There's nothing to hate about him. He's just a weird guy. Would you rather he be boring as hell and have great money management skills? Yay! I wish he was more like Greg Raymer! Gavin Smith is a complete wackjob and flat broke right now and no one says a damn thing bad about him.
