This was one of my favorite podcasts/interviews. I've been playing poker for over 20 years and used to play full time. I always thought Daniel did a great job of explaining the game and concepts in layman's terms for the sake of teaching or conveying ideas, much like he did here. Then you have Lex who knows little to nothing about the gam, but is a critical and analytical thinker and even without knowing the game is able to discern and ask astute questions. It ended up being a high level thinking component with regards to poker talk and theory/ideology, and I found that fascinating. At the same time, one can ascertain parallels from the critical thinking required for poker to general life and using those same thinking skills.

Hey Lex, as a Poker Player for the past 55 years, I am 67 and playing for cash since I'm 12 years old, having this young man on is great! I have watched Dan play since he came on the poker scene. When I would watch him a decade ago, he would call guys hands, J Q he'd say... And the fucking guy had J Q!! Or the next best either way... Always blew me away. He has a gift that not too many will ever figure out or get a piece of. The game of Poker is ever evolving in what strategies are available to a player. Remember, one night, you clean up, the next, you get cleaned out. LOL I prefer playing only tournaments these days. Pay the entry for a great payoff. Cash games anymore are too volitile and anyone can make stupid all in bets and hit on the river and take your straight to the cleaners when he hits the flush on the river. Good luck, Lex. Let's play. I'm in NYC!! Greenwich Village!

I've been watching poker for about 20 years. Negreanu has always stood out for me, not necessarily for his skills (although he's made some sick plays, like any high level player has), but for his ability to reinvent himself and keep up with the game. At 47, he's still there with the best of them, always learning and adjusting. It's refreshing to see.
@edforbes1563 Жыл бұрын
Yeah totally agree. Just in general, the levels of sports professionals has increased dramatically in the last 20 years. I'm english so when I say football, I mean actual football, but players used to have a smoke at half time, and drink loads, and still be at the top. Now it's all nutrician, lifestyle, anything to get an edge, and if you ain't doing all that, you're falling behind. And poker is a great example of this. Watching the plays they used to make in poker 20 years ago, they'd get crushed now. Ranges, blockers, fucking gto. It's unreal. Have to be a nerd to be a winning playing these days, especially online. But Daniel has evolved, he's recognised the situation and adapted to it. It's a credit to him, and I fully respect it. RIP Doyle.

You need to watch the Magnus and Daniel episodes back to back. Fascinating.

Amazing podcast, I love the questions and connections Lex makes with alot of his guests, and obviously Daniel is on of the GOATs of poker, but damn I think the strength of his beard game may soon surpass his poker game, what a freaking mane!

Great seeing Daniel on your show. I was part of the self help group in Vegas (Choice Center) were I got to meet him and several other poker players who also took that course as well as many people from other walks of life. I'm not into the game so I didn't know who he was but after getting to know him and doing to of the "stretches" we all had to do I became a fan of the man. Great guy and really funny. Glad to hear he's happy in love. Wonder if he ever got the six pack abs yet;)

Such a refreshing feeling to see this interviewer, to the point and did his homework. Listens and reacts with good questions! Kudos Lex!

Excellent job Lex, you really held your own for someone not very familiar with the game. I could say its the best poker conversation ive ever heard between two men who aren't both poker pros. Well done.

As a long time poker player, this is awesome. Wasn't expecting this :) you get some hidden gems on here. You hit two gems for me and that's Devin larrat and now kid poker.

Lex is probably the best conversationalist the internet has. The level of his content is so deep and surreal. Keep going brother, more power to you!
