Daniel Negreanu keeps on losing big money in the popular TV show High Stakes Poker. In the last episode of high stakes poker he lost everything he had on the table so he had to re-buy for another $200,000 to stay in the high stakes game with blinds of $400/$800.
Daniel Negreanu can't get anything going at the moment. He's waiting and waiting for playable hands, and when he finally gets them, usua[...] Read more » High Stakes poker: Famous pokerstar keeps on losing money

For 5 years?
Daniel is no doubt a really good player especially in tours but he is far from top 5 imo.

Now, That Durr twat ... cannot stand him at all. I don't care what he's win, he's unlikable IMO.
Are you not bright enough to seperate personality and poker skills ?
Are you not bright enough to seperate someone else's opinion from yours? I don't like him, full stop. I said I do not care what he has won, meaning I don't care how good he may be. "Don't care" does not mean I don't recognise it. Seems you're the dim one
You are right I was too fast there, sorry. I personally don't like Durrr but think he's an amazing pokerplayer and many people don't give him credit for his game because he is kind of arrogant.
Edit: to answer your question....yes I think I am, can't see how I mixed our opinions?

Why would U think he sticks his chips in on a draw?
If U see the history of his HSP show, then history matters. It's not about one hand, or two hands but the entire show. Same goes now Barry VS Durrr the are building a history with eachother and they play differently when facing eachother in HU.
Same goes for Daniel, he kept missing draws, Quads over Full, flopping nuts against runner ,Quads etc etc.
When he moved in with his 9-10 Suited agaist Eli's Aces, it was meant to make A. A stand B. His Personal HSP history C. maybe getting Eli off the hand D. A flush draw

And why run it twice?? dont get that either. oh and mathisidiotic :}

Unlucky?

Daniel N has got totally pwned this series and Durrrr has run the show. Like them or not that's the way it's been.
I've never really liked Durrrrs attitude or manor before but his play is unbelievable and his demeanor at the table is totally professional. The most exciting player out there at the moment.
Check out Daniel's cocky attitude on episode 1 series 1 and compare it to the last episode of HSP. The state of the game has changed so much and he needs to adapt and fast - where's all his reading skills gone? Why can't he 3-bet and mix it up like Durrrr does? He's well behind the times and he knows it - the online high stakes players are all so much better than him - certainly at NLHE cash games.
The people on here ( and other sites ) that slag of Durrrr need to get there heads checked. They would all get crushed should they ever meat him at the tables and he is giving us an exhibition in poker the likes of which I've never seen before. He deserves much more respect from the general public than he gets. The pros all respect him and his game whys it so hard for everyone else too?

He has achieved lot in last 5 years... And yes it 's possible to have a downsing of 5 years. Negreanu is superb good in reading other players hands, and he has also good skill of reading other players hand
