Daniel Negreanu blasts Full Tilt Poker’s Howard Lederer and others, Jamie Gold has his own poker room in Las Vegas, and online poker is a scam, obv. Check out the best poker videos of the week in Rewind.
Daniel Negreanu had some choice words for Full Tilt Poker owners Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson and Ray Bitar, calling them scumbags and weasels, among other names. Check out the PokerStars pro’s rant starting at the 5:55 mark.
And here’s a remix already:
Poker pro Isaac Haxton is the subject of Seat Open over at PokerNews.com:
Why is 2006 World Series of Poker main event winner Jamie Gold getting a poker room named after him in the Tropicana in Las Vegas? We really have no idea. But he is. And you can check out the room, and the always engaging Gold, below:
According to this mini-documentary we came across, it is. If you watch the whole thing, let us know what you think. Is he just making stuff up? Skewing statistics? Or is this guy several standard deviations away from the mean in the hands likes underpair vs. overpair (he claims it’s nearly coinflip for all the hands he has ever played in that scenario). Any way you slice it, it’s a fairly entertaining video. He also doesn’t seem to understand that he sees certain hands (i.e. royal flushes) more online than he does live BECAUSE HE HAS PLAYED WAY MORE HANDS ONLINE THAN HE HAS LIVE. Or the video maker is just leveling us all and is laughing at me for writing this much about his video.
Title says it all. But “Online poker is a scam” should be one of them.
