#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Same, it's poker, but it's different in so many levels, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

I think playing online, you have to focus far more on fundamentals, you know, on game theory.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

You don't have the added bonus of looking across the table and getting any sense of whether your opponent is strong or weak.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

They're bluffing, whatever, you know.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

And also...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Because online poker, those that play it, you play far more hands.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Like some of these guys are playing 10, 20 tables at the same time.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Right.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

So you're just, you're hitting the long run really quickly and you're creating a database on your opponents.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Right.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

So let's have, you know, online, I can see your data.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

I'm like, well, this guy, he's playing 40% of hands.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

He's betting the river 80% of the time.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

So now I can use that data and, you know, exploit you that way.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

When you play live, you don't have that.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Do you enjoy playing online?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

I enjoy, so with online poker, I enjoy the convenience of it because, you know, you can be on your couch in your underwear, not leave your house.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

I typically like to play one or two, but I can play up to four.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

I find that past four, it's hard for me to keep up and keep track of what's actually happening.
