I watched Daniel Negreanu beat Jerry Buss the other night by calling an 8diamond on the turn and a Jdiamond on the river, thereby solidifying his win with a diamond straight, queen high. I heard later that he was beaten by someone that was not expected to win. In any case, I believe he took that beat like a gentleman. One thing I've noticed about this particular message board that's different than the Phil Gordon message board on this site, Daniel has a LOT more negative comments than Phil. I am just wondering what is the "real deal" with Daniel? He seems like a very decent human being with a huge heart for the game. He has a joy and a child-like attitude that I find very refreshing. It makes no difference to me concerning his biological or geographic roots; Dan is what he is, and all he is is just a man. He's been blessed with some very nice talents, and I wish only the best with him. Have a great poker life, Daniel, I only hope to meet you someday when I move to Vegas! *goes back to dreaming of Phil Gordon...*
