Great Blog....You got me! That Tiger story sounded very interesting, would have loved to see it happen.

funny stuff, except for the last one since the gold lawsuit was already settled.

lol pretty funny, especially the one about greenstein becoming a rabbi

I knew it was BS when I got to the Ivey story. Got me with the Seidel though.

I couldn't believe the Seidel one... he weighs what, 200 lbs tops (with 10lb weights in each hand)?

So Phil Ivey and Tiger Woods were sitting around one night....

Haha you shouldn't have told people it was fake for a week. So people start saying to Juanda "We're gonna miss you!!!! I'd vote for you any day!!"
It would have been fun.

You need to use your platform to start flagrantly false rumors. Its a duty.

When did that happen? I never heard anything like that and I figured I'd know if it was settled?

From 2+2 NVG: Gold Settles

It was on the cardplayer website a few days ago...

ETA: Looks like someone beat me too it

me = first.... what do I win? WPT buy in?

A fabulous trip to Kenya (no expenses paid)

Dude should be a lawyer, had me fooled till the last sentence.

So,... what...Jamie got like $50K after taxes?


Regarding the blog, I was TOTALLY buying the Juanda one. I was seriously in disbelief.

darn you DN!

you had me going for most of it....well played

Hey,

Great rumors.....

I heard a rumor that Daniel's newest book may actually be released this century ????

in my best Kelso voice......


BURN!!!!

but I was reading with curiosity until I saw the Juanda quitting poker title and instantly thought, DN's at it again, trying to fool us, Danny Boy, we are starting to read you like a book, time to switch gears and go back to playing tight

You only THINK you have a good read on me, meanwhile I's setting you up for the big fall. When it comes, you won't know what hit you...

You sound like Phil hellmuth on Poker After Dark...

WOW, excellent! You totally got it, that's what I was aiming for.

LOL!!! That's awesome!!!

I'd type something profound, but I'm too busy laughing...

You MFer!!!!!!!!

I was pounding the floor with my feet, jerking my head back in disbelief, thinking of all the people I was going to "WOW" with this information..... good one.

"......they come over the top of me 12 times......"

Phil? You mean Tiger? lmao

Poor Phil.....such a lost soul....

Okay, another good one!!!! If there was even a SHRED of truth in the fact you were looking to be like Phil, I bet there'd be more than a few fans you'd lose.

I don't know why, but I was buying it until I read Juanda is giving up poker due to some bad online sessions. Thats when it clicked in my brain that it's all B.S. and I skipped to the bottom to confirm.

Funny stuff.

I'm so gullible. You had me Daniel. I just kept thinking that Seidel and Ivey had lost their minds.

Maybe all the 2nd places for Juanda will eventually make him give up poker. Got to be frustrating. I honestly doubt winning a 1 day 100k 1st prize event is what Juanda was hoping for.

Hahahahahaha a freakin rabbi

<3 Daniel.

If I had not already read about Gold settling I was hook line and sinker sucked in too. Good one, almost up there with the drunken lament video.......

In the end, we all are striving to be like Phil Helmuth.

That was the one that peeked my interest as well. Since I work in the golf industry I started to talk with my colleagues about the bet.
I still woulda taken Tiger. Who knows, maybe Phil will meet him one day and the match will take place. I think Tiger should have to use a toaster on a stick to putt with though. Oh wait.... that is what his driver is already! http://www.nike.com/nikegolf/sumo/index.html?navID=sumo_bg

you had me up until the Juanda thing, then I started realising what you were up to.

Will you ever do something like that in your blog, and wait for a few days to tell us it wasn't true?

For me, reading this blog was like calling a big raise when you know you are beaten. It would be a physical impossibility for Eric to put on that much weight, not to mention that he doen't appear to be the type of guy who would make that type of bet (maybe Ted Forrest). I have watched JJ on FullTilt in the last couple of days and he has done well. Ivey wouldnt have a chance against Tiger. I knew the Jamie Gold thing was settled.

YET, I still believed it all until the last sentence. Remind me never to play poker with you DN.

I was wondering whether he was doing this with the end of the world, wer are going to die, sell my cars, climate change blog.

I believed the juanda one. the ivey vs tiger made me a sceptic but didnt Juanda once say that he was thinking abut qutting before to go back to Med school. Maybe Im crazy.
