![Daniel Negreanu Wins Super High Roller Bowl VII for $3,300,000 [Biggest Career Win!]](/img/n.gif)
I wanna see Phil Hellmuth vs Tony G in one of these
OMG YES 👍
Oh hell yeah!!
OMG I would drop everything I am doing to see that. You are a genius 😎👍🏿
its not happening because
1. Hellmuth's too chicken to play a cash heads-up his brain hurts when he tries to evaluate thing bigger than 10BB preflop (relies too much on compulsory action instead of creating one)
2. Hellmuth could barely keep it cool with Esfandiari in front of him who is like 30% annoying in comparison for Tony G
3. Nobody wants to see drunk tony G winning on pure luck celebrating loud while Hellmuth waltz off
Wait we want no. 3 , WE ALL WANT IT😂😂
My dream
The dialogue between them in real life versus social media goes to show how toxic hiding behind a computer makes your personality versus having to look adversity in the face.
Im confused, did they just have friendly banter online or were they actually fighting?
Yep. Dudes be pussies in real life.
You're a dum b novice dude
@@RodJeez classic example of a incel there
Yuppp
I've met Daniel four times and spoke to him as well. Fantastic, relaxed, genuine sense of humor, and as unpretentious as ever to the point of being possibly the friendliest celebrity I can imagine, and even if he weren't a celebrity, his friendliness would be top notch.
I also got to sit opposite Greg Raymer and chatted for almost six hours at a tournament, and it really made my trip.
Thanks to both of you, as well as many others!
Glad you met Daniel. Thats makes you a humanitarian
It's the Canadian in him 😂
Daniel has to be the most likeable and fun poker star ever to watch as a fan. He's just pure entertainment and just so happens to have some of the best reads in poker history
Doug is also pretty likeable and interesting to watch. That intro was bizarre.
@@Tarasyoutube I think it was for the camera. They are just trying to generate heat to the game, they are both invested in it.
Whatever beef they have is basically nothing
@@rugbychampion1 definitely basically nothing, so what was that..😉😘
Don't meet your heroes.
Daniel gave Polk some hands due to getting camera time and his maturity. He doesnt need to win anynmore money. Thats what happens when you get older.
Doug “I’m adding ten” Polk
Doug "Tonka Truck Driver" Polk
Doug "I beat daniel after 25k hands" polk
Polk just needed to understand that everything you do at the poker table conveys information, you can’t be all loosey goosey
And eating a sandwich
As of today, almost 25% of the way to the end, Polk is up $600K. So he’s killing him in the online portion.
@@TConn9 Well that wasnt hard to predict that online will be in Polks favour, DNeg was never consider a very good online player he is old style we will see at the end who makes profit.
Wow nice copy and paste
And you need to understand that he knows what he's doing lol
Polk seems like that sleezy guy who would try to hook up with his friends girlfriend, then blame it on alcohol or something stupid like that LOL
Aaand now I hate him
Perfect description!!! Ever since he hit the poker scene, sleezy is the correct word for this guy.
Or blame it on his friend for going to the bathroom and leaving Polk w his gf
Well I doubt that since he is gay lol
@@KrolKaz He’s gay? Not that it matters to me, but I never got that impression. DNeg on the other hand I had assumed was for a while.
Daniel is just a class act. I think this match showcases these players’ gap in maturity more than anything.
no Doug is mature too. Daniel is making him out that way but he didn't really do anything. He criticized Pokerstars for increasing rake saying it will help recreational players. "Wearing a tshirt" with the more rake is better is kind of nothing, it's not like he acted immature or did anything with it.
I love both of them so I feel comfortable explaining this. And I also am someone who feels I'm always surrounded by people less mature than me and Doug is a fellow smart guy
Nah lol Doug was super salty at the end and could barely credit Daniel for playing well
@@Kro_NHL Because why should he? I guess you didn't watch them do the 25k hands where daniel would claim it was just luck after every session.
After the "Big Game", "Shark Cage" etc. I'm more happy to see actions like this with a professional broadcast again. It was missing for many years to watch events like this. Keep going, it's nice entertainment!! :)
I've been missing this too. So much fun.
depends on what you call professional broadcast.. but i can highly recommend any triton series videos
The reason is most of todays poker pro's are boring AF to watch play. They can win a triple up pot and they look the same as if they just lost 95% of their chips. Todays stars are just plain BORING to watch.
@@allankay12 thats probably because theyre mostly online players that just dont want to act out on camera or something .. i feel u tho
Polk out flopped him so much
They should do the first 200 hands AND the last 200 hands live.
Problem is odds are last 200 hands will be more passive for purposes of winning the challenge
Because they made bets with other people. I think doug bet with someone 500k that he ll win the challenge. So if he s up 10k in the last 20 hands, he ll simply fold to win his bet
They should do all hands live
@Brett Sylvester there is they made lot of side bets with many peole.
The likelihood that the last 200 hands will be relevant is almost nil.
This is way more friendly than I could have ever anticipated
Daniel is the best reader I’ve ever seen. Online to me is not real poker to me, being able to see the person live and not just play the cards is important.
100%
True
Online is real. They're just different. Online you're trying to take a small edge and multiply it over multiple tables over a long period of time, theoretically eliminating variance. They require a ton of overlapping skills, live vs online.
Doug, I hear there are heads up lessons available right now on Upswing Poker.
@Brett Sylvester someone's a nut swinger
Dang alex lmao what does doug expect?
@Brett Sylvester relax groupie, it’s just a joke
What's up guys, Doug Polk here and today on Polker Hands...
It's just banter.
You internet snowflakes. Get out more.
I want to shout out the commentary crew on this one. They did absolutely amazing and it was such a drastic improvement from the first Phil and Antonio match.
Except for the one guy constantly saying Daniel's name wrong. You think SOMEONE would have fed him the proper way to say it at some point during the 3 hour game
@@guibox3 negreanew
@@guibox3 yeah and the way they say "out and about"... just all wrong!
Isn’t it Daniel neg-ruh-knew
/s
They were terrible
I love that Doug said "if your bad, it'll be expensive for you." Then lost almost 120k... nice.
Keyword “if” i guess lol
Doug ended up 1.2 million after the online hands Daniel has him bested in live play though
@@Archy513 a big part of poker is reading the other players so taking that part of the game away makes it no surprise at the outcome.
@@ckhawk00 yeap....also some people just have the IQ and brain power to analyze info and process information quickly and accurately which plays heavily into top online players. Especially when playing multiple tables simultaneously.....no live reads at all....just algorithms, pattern recognition, n balancing out bets. Higher IQ is a big factor.
@@ckhawk00 n im not diminishing or minimizing polk. He is one of the besr players hands Down....
But even polk himself.....will have beats against top cash games, live games, etc in person playing 6-8 hours against someone
Call me old school but there is some "IT" factor in handling huge amount of pressure... N reads are important
Idk....im.biased. I struggle analyzing info in 2X the speed.
Playing with a group of people for 8 hours live. Im able to retain informstion recogniZe reads, use intuition and skill and pattern recognition.
The entire match should’ve been live. DNegs absolutely demolished Polk. He’s gotta know that everything he does at the table conveys information
Given that 25k hands would take more than 375hrs of live play, that's just not realistic
i honestly think Doug didn't care in this one. I feel like he, like many other poker players, miss the real table experience, whether he has a long online past or not. The banter is something you can't replicate online. I loved this match since it's the part of poker that makes it fun, aside from winning. imho
@@t0pz87 Doug knew was underdog live is many reasons why live and online separated…but you right don’t think really cared he knew could lose prob max of 5 buy in and still crush negs over the 25k hands
@@t0pz87 yea. Nothing beats live poker. But if u have a high IQ can analyze information and retain info really fast. Online is way more profitable obviously.
Playing multiple tables at a time so double or tripling your winnings..
But if ur a top 20 poker player in the world in live tables. Thats so hard to beat. Daniel can play live....withstand pressure, read players, and retain info on players with great skill
this didnt age well
This was great poker. The amount of respect they both held at a live table shows you their true characters. Incredible content.
It's almost impossible to get Daniel to river fold
Daniel Negreanu and Doug Polk need to play live again. It's way more interesting watching them play live than online. You can't even see their cards when they play online! I can't watch that for hours like I can watch them play live for hours.
Lolwot? They were already friends
Polk seems arrogant to me. Acting like he’s superior to Daniel so much.
@@RussTheGreatMan I think that's just because he focusses on headsup so much while daniels strength is tournament poker. I think Doug has massive respect for Daniel for taking up the challenge against him.
I wish more of this was live. I miss poker in 2005
no you don't it's 25k hands haha
And up to 2015!
Love these two guys for how much entertainment they gave us the last few months! Thank you!
Daniel was always good at magically being able to avoid a “mine field” (a trap). I remember how much I enjoyed his ability to “lay down” a hand that someone else would blindly, confidently, walk right into someone holding a ‘boat’ or ‘quads’ with a “nut flush”.
He had flipped a high pair on the flop and from the turn being a second 3 he got 2 pair. and that same 3 gave doug three of a kind. And Doug does a light raise. Daniel sits on it for half a minute and folds. Talk about sniffing out the strong hand.
Love hearing their input on the game. Can't wait to see another live match.
they should do one of these live sessions once a week
YES
Yeah 200 hands in 4 hours is exactly what we need for this 25000 hand match. More of this so we never get to see this end.
Agree. More fun
Or like they used to do the heads up tournaments those were so fun
"There's nowhere to hide in heads up." -Says the guy hiding behind a computer screen and keyboard...
He's talking figuratively not literally, dingus
"if given the choice between cannibalism and seafood, I choose fish" what a great line lol
So the biggest takeaway is that these are two very nice guys who just get caught up in the internet bullshit and then bad social decisions are made. Glad they were actually so civil to one another.
World-class production - thank you Poker Go! Great set-up, professional surroundings - and let's have Kane and Ali doing all the commentary from now on - just the right mix of expert analysis and entertaining banter!
I love how they just sit there with basic discussions due to underlining beef, whilst casually announcing there thoughts after each hand they play 🤣
avoiding the elephant in the room 101 😂😂
Great episode again!
Polk the type to make another Negreanu troll video soon as he gets home
Love the heads up table set up. Well done. Very entertaining
Very entertaining thanks. ✌️👊
I can't wait to see Phil "50 hands is a big enough sample size" Hellmuth play against Negreanu.
when is that match?
Well round 1 was epic
The biggest surprise is that neither are wearing tank tops!
Underrated comment
Priceless

Very under rated
LMAO
This feels like an awkward first date
Please confirm that after... you have your first
Literally feels like the opposite
between two lesbians
One ordered Pogg for dinner. The other odered the Humble Pie.
1000%
That was so nice to watch and learn from
LOL. Loved watching Doug getting crushed.
Look it up, he won overall by 250k
@@leemer who
@@leemer he won by 1.2 mil not 250k.
@@Xnothen yeah, you're right. Forgot to correct it.
This comment did not age well.
This was a lot of fun to watch, it’d be great if they did more of these
Congratulations to PokerGo on a great production! Great set, commentators, graphics etc...just a shame they are only doing 200 hands in the PokerGo studio. I'm definitely signing back up to PokerGo for PAD & HSP next month....
polk contradicting everything that daniel says in a elementary school-beef kinda way the whole way through is hilarious.
“Reach out to me if YOUR credible” is crazy
This was a great production! Well done by everyone. More please! I hope the audience was what was expected.
“Did we just become best friends?” “Yup.”
Wanna go do karate in the garage?
Timestamp?
@@donaldvanle its a reference to step brothers
Daniel is such a veteran...he went from sassy to daddy in his talk.
hi, thanks a lot for the video! It was interesting and informative :)
I wish thered been more live play, this was fantastic
Wow. My level of tilt when the commentators speak over the players is so high.
Big fan of both individually, glad to see no real beef.
this is the living embodiment of those people who are all talk online vs them irl
30:35 “I was expecting Mohammed Ali vs Joe Frazier, not Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield?!” Mike Tyson bit Evander Holyfield’s ear off. Hardly a cordial affair
I think that was a reference to the fact that Tyson and Holyfield recently became friends
Safe to say you missed the point!
It was just a little nibble. They have been bff's for a long time.
This was a ton of fun. Can't wait to sweat the online action!
Same here I’m a little town watcher.. so it’s a hell of action/poker game MUST WATCH
FloatTheTurn! Sensei!
Yo JL!!! you must be buzzing that the " more rake guy " is winning!!
DG is an experienced legend. DP has the online advantage but never the same caliber as Negs.
It’s not even close
@@dylanofmshorts In a tournament format agreed. However, in heads up Doug destroys Daniel. Evident by the fact he's $800k up after tonight's session. I think they just passed £12.5k hands played as well.
i dont know why they dont do this more.....because this is very entertaining
Maybe they like each other after all? We're going to need more than these 200 hands played live. They have good banter.
Polk is far outmatched against Negreanu live. Online play takes a huge part of the game out of the equation and it is definitely Polk's strength. They should both stick to their strengths. What happened is exactly what most people I've talked to thought would happen.
200 houndread hands, it is nothing.
Daniel had run better than Doug, hit more board, hit a trips in a 3bet pot.
Easy win when you hit the board.
on 100k hands live, daniel gonna loose lot of money vs Doug.
@@paologalimberti5097 yeah Daniel seemed to hit every hand.
@@oman9492 u can say the same with online especially when ur hitting cards and hitting em with 2 tables simultaneously.
If they did this live tables....2 hands at a time. Would be 400 hands n daniel would win. ..than what would u say? Its only 400 hands not.25K?
@@jimmydane34 well yeah, 200 Hands, 400 hands... live or online is still under 10,000 hands. Even 10,000 hands has a decent chance of seeing deviations from expected value.
Pokergo I NEED to see Tom Dwan and Pier. 'The Italian and the Irishman'? Not sure Dwan's nationality. But please?? I'm begging you..
The stares alone would cause the cards to burst into flames
Much respect for both players, but man I knew from the get-go Kid Poker was gonna take live event. Amazing heads up, so much to learn from this.
Just watched the entire match. First, I could definitely watch well over 8 hours of this heads up match. This match was beautiful, in every aspect. The banter, sportsmanship, mutual respect and lines of play broadcasted to everyone watching was pure entertainment. The checks by DNegs and over bet by Doug were lines not often took. Displayed to me, to difference in live vs online play. I could watch these two shuffle chips and combat amicably all day long if they were doing it live, online.. not so much. I do look forward to seeing the results after the 12,500th hand mark. I want DNegs to win but I think Doug will prevail in his chosen arena.
Polk prefers online play because he can bring up all of the additional software that will tell him how to play a hand. He cant do it on his own.
@@letsgobrandon7567 you mean a hud LOL get me on whatever tables you play
1:18:00 that’s actually a pretty sick tell!
i could watch these guys play every day
A fan of both players, however, I would like to see the last session live !!!!! A great way to finalise two great poker players.😎
nice very entertaining. Dnegs ran pretty insanely hot but also played well (eg the K9 bluff was pretty epic - playing his image really well here). Still think Doug will destroy him online though once they start playing some real volume.
its preetty standard tho, he cant call pre, folding seems bad againts a guy that 3 bets light, obviously your left with 4beting. k9o is preetty good candidate.
the flop is tricky because doug can have 1010 and JJ when he flats pre but you have K high and you have a gutter so you have a clear cbet, turn im not going to ttalk much because you could check(and realize equity with the oportunity to bluff some rivers when checked to you ) or bet and go for 3 barrels in some rivers.
river is a blank and when you dont block any diamond i guess its mandatory to bluff all in , you get some auto folds from some type of draws like KQ ou Qx diAMONDS and you put AJ and AT in a really dificult spot.
its standard bro
not epic at all xD
@@jose3990 it was epic. He pulled off a great bluff. I’m hoping Polk destroys Negreanu online now.
@@prisonmike3665 dude get real..polker is a clown ::)) he will lose EPIC
@@prisonmike3665 how is it a epic bluff dude? do you understanding anything about bluffing
@@prisonmike3665 the most important thing in poker is not how you play tout cards, it's the people, the people...
It would be nice to see a 3k live hand contest between the two. Or at least the highlights from it. Both admirable players.
Negranu is best poker player in poker history switching beetween styles and adjust to opponents so perfectly real genius
I'm usually a Negreanu fan, but I've also enjoyed Polks videos. I've always disliked the "feud" and am genuinely happy to see the friendliness in this match. Life is short, simply put. Can people just learn we are all one people and we just have different perspectives in life. It was nice to view.
I'm loving this interaction between the two! Would totally pay 5 bucks a month to listen Dnegs and Doug podcast, reminiscing about the old days of poker.
isnt doug polk in his 30s?
@@Ererization polk is about as new school poker as it gets
Great commentary. Didn’t talk over players, informed the viewers.
I am glad these two seemed to have worked out any beef they had going..they both seem like pretty nice guys that try to improve the game and players skills at playing them..maybe that is all it was a beef over who gets the most viewers to their channels
Alternate title - Two old friends having a nice chat
lmao the intro waas funny, I couldn't stop laughing
Even when feuding, these two are polite and cordial.
Boring tho
Dougie Polk - the classic keyboard ninja. so sharp and witty behind the screen, but a cute little mouse in person. Can’t believe people were calling this a ‘grudge’ match lmao
Maybe it was all for show to increase audiences. You know, like reality TV drama where it's all fabricated.
Also. I could watch Doug Polk lose at poker every day and it would never get old!
Doug smoked Negreanu for 1.2 million in this match lol. All you did was see the first 150 hands.
Watching these two play showed some very awesome techniques in betting strategies and game planning, knowing the no need in committing, but patience in holding back there full potential.
Now they both have a 100% feel for each other and it’ll be exploited from here on out in future meetings.
Just awesome to watch.
i think deep down these guys just wanted to be friends and didnt know how to do it
I literally thought the same thing lol.
Agreed
there should be an "after school special" tv show on it
Yeah they get along well but have major philosophical differences
@@Rekickit If they wanted to or if other people want to be friends then they should not play poker against each other. Or play for tiny stakes and keep the game friendly. Because the nature of the game is obtainment by stealing, deception, mis-direction and trickery, therefore the game for high stakes is not friendly.
two poker dudes just happy to be back to do what they love on the highest level
i dont think doug even likes playing poker anymore.
The start of this video is so fired up
Why is this rivalry so adorable? The banter is hilarious, though.
You know what, after Polk constantly poked Daniel, tweeted mean things etc. I'm actually happy that Dnegs showed him some solid play, and it isn't an easy walk for Polk.
I actually hope Negreanu wins this match.
Negreanu finally had a win today, but he was compliant about getting action on his Aces after...not great. I am happy he’s winning some
@@amazingabby25 Daniel ended up being a bit too loosey goosey, but played great
Daniel Negreanu and Doug Polk need to play live again. It's way more interesting watching them play live than online. You can't even see their cards when they play online! I can't watch that for hours like I can watch them play live for hours.
Would be great to see a version of this with no commentary, just the players talking.
3:27:40 Biggest hand of the night. In the old days, wasn't it a routine fold for a paired flop of 6s Kc 6h? Daniel had 10c6c, Doug had QdJd. Daniel bet $1600, Doug called and only had a runner runner straight draw.
Feels a bit awkward how cordial they're being.
I think Negreanu was just acting the way he always acts. Polk is the one that’s been coming after him online for years and suddenly acts like his pal.
@@MrElephantBeach looololololololol
I think it’s pretty easy to be a trol
Saying what you want online with no accountability really. In person when you’re staring across from each other , perhaps they’re learning a smidge of respect
@@MrElephantBeachI think he’s had a fair amount of reason to come after Daniel. Seems everyone is stuck in the early 2000’s of Daniel being the nice guy of poker, when realistically he’s done some super sketchy things in the last few years.
@@jacobclose3099 what did he do? also i think they are showmen they dont really hate each other, just giving us a reason to watch
Just because you call someone out on what you think is extremely bs and have a disagreement, doesn't mean you can't still be cordial afterwards.
Love how he said “goals to win millions of dollars” *gets followed up with by them going”I left with 3 million” and bro says “wow congrats, not that big a deal”
You know they're both worth 8 digits,
And bro took 1.2 off dnegs
Dang! These guys are so polite and gentlemanly there seems to be non “feud” whatsoever! 😂 but I appreciate these sorts of games actually! And good commentary without interrupting their conversations
Aren’t they Canadians after all

They are being fake. The second this is over and they have the internet it will go back to how it was.
Especially with these two players - I was personally very interested in everything they had to say. Thank you for the compliments - let the WSOP know you'd like to hear more from me. Would love to commentate the main event one day.
This therapeutic for them. Especialy in covid times. They're gonna come out as friends at the end of this.
People love to see clashing and drama, personally I would absolutely love it if these guys came out friends and newfound respect for eachother. Part of life I appreciate the most is when you see bad relationships with a negative past come out as equals.
@@An00bisY00tubis Not gonna happen, there's principals and morals involved and ll on Dougs ed, DNegs is a narcissist, it won't end well
Very interesting to hear what the guys did in March 2020.
I love the heads up table
I think both these guys have confidence. DP in HU & DNEG in poker generally. ppl say and troll a lot online
In person , they’re seeing a “ person “ across from them ... and I see a little respect showing for each other.
They likely won’t be BFF’s , but each of these guys will gain a little more respect for one another , win or lose
let's hope so 👍🏻
It's also easy to erroneously read more or the wrong emotion/tone in a written message than when you can see/hear the person, right? Maybe all this started with an escalated misunderstanding.
@@USMCHellraiser I agree with you, however as much as I hate to admit it, because I like doug, i do think he might overplay things online to generate the clicks
DNegs did not take this very well

i must say, in all the crazy stuff going on in world, it was nice to see them being cool, classy.
