Recap on session 29
The Grudge Match of the Century was getting hot as Negreanu suffered a big loss on the session. which made him say in the post-match interview:
“I’m not suggesting that the fucking software’s rigged, but man, it feels like it. It just doesn’t feel real, and I’ve been playing poker for- what am I, fucking 46? – I’ve been playing poker for 27, 28 years. This doesn’t feel possible. I know it is possible, and I know fucking variance is a thing. But it doesn’t feel possible. It just doesn’t feel fucking possible.”
Negreanu’s vocabulary received a better run-out than his big hands, with another of his legendary swear-fests:
“I just kept getting those big cocksucking, fucking, motherfucking ace-king of spades…cock-fucking dickshit end up with dick-fucking-all…”
That’s the more publishable of his post-match comments.
Lady luck and variance turns around
The variance factor was on Daniel Negreanu this time. whenever Polk had a good hand, KidPoker seemed to have an even better one, as in this $116k pot…
