#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

Okay.

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

So, and the reason I say that is I think of poker as more than just one game, right?

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

There's different variants.

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

You know, there's Hold'em, Omaha, stud, triple draw, all these different types of games.

And Phil in every arena is,

has been dominant.

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

Whether it was tournament poker, dominated it.

#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

And, you know, he sort of took a few years away from poker with his legal troubles and things like that, but he's back.

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

He's been playing in the high roller series again, and he's cut from a different cloth, but he has a tenacity and a focus that's unparalleled, I think.

#324 โ€“ Daniel Negreanu: Poker

When he's in the zone, I mean, this has nothing to do with race.

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

It really has to do with mannerism, but he does remind me of a combination of Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods in the way that he approaches it.

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

He's very intense, and he outworks everybody.

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

You know, and I think, frankly, a lot of his mannerisms do come from them because he's young watching these guys on TV.

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

And a lot of his ways of being, you know, his learned behavior, I think probably from people like that.

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

There's a uniqueness to them.

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

They're not built like us.

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

They're not, you know, they're not.
