Top 5 Most Amazing Daniel Negreanu Poker Reads!

Good job youtube algorithms. I have literally never watched a single video remotely related to this yet here I am.

No wonder Negreanu’s so rich, he’s been living rent free in these guys’ heads for years

Negreanu: Of course you'd get pocket queens with a queen on the river Dealer: Sir, I haven't dealt the cards yet.

Negreanu: you've got pocket aces. Me: can i at least look at my cards first?

Somebody: Breathes Daniel Negreanu: "You grew up in a small town in Illinois. As a child you always had issues because your parents couldn't make ends meet. As a result, you started making money off the local kids by playing poker against them. That's where you discovered your love for the game. You're at this tournament hoping to win big for your 2 year old son and the daughter that you have on the way. You're gonna name her Charlotte but I think Avery would be better. Anyway you have pocket rockets, lemme see em." Them: What the fuck

Well obviously it’s easy to read when you can clearly see the opponents cards at the bottom of the screen

As a poker dealer, I enjoy trying to read the players without risking any money. It's one of the cool things about the job.

"That's why the man was player of the year" Absolute class from Mike Sexton, even when he won the hand, showing the highest level of respect. You're dearly missed my friend, rest in peace.

"You have to understand that everything you do at a poker table conveys information" Player: Does nothing Player: Continues to do nothing Player: Breathes Daniel: You have two aces

Player: "You have two aces" me not knowing nothing of poker: "He got you fr"

RIP Mike Sexton.. what a guy.. props to his opponent, wins with humility and praises why they’re player of the year. This is why he was loved by every poker player that knew him

I know nothing about poker, but you can bet I'm going to go down a rabbit hole of Daniel Negreanu content now

Man across the room sneezes, Daniel: It was Colonel Mustard in the billiards room with a rusty pipe at six o’clock in the evening.

"I'm not even sure McClean has aces and we can see his cards" - This is top notch commentary holy fuck I died laughing at this!!

Guy doesnt show up to play Daniel: "He was going to have 2 kings and 2 aces this match."

Some people just have that intuition and watching it at work is so awesome

Person: Breathes Daniel: You have a 5 and King of clubs

Legend has it that Daniel can see John Cena

I played poker pretty seriously for a couple of years and was able to read someone's hand (exact hand) exactly one time. Lost the hand, but ended up huge because the rest of the table was so freaked out that they thought I was able to do it regularly and were chucking winning hands because they thought I got a read on them. Have had it done to me maybe twice. Feels like a bucket of icewater dumped on your head, really is kinda freaky. Insane that Negreanu is able to do it with such consistency.

The thing about Daniel is he's ok with losing the hand because he values checking if his reads are accurate for the long term
