Never seen or even heard of Lex Fridman, but I do appreciate his interview style. Straight to the point questions, and ALLOWS the person to fully answer. So many times in these sort of interviews the host tries to control the convo or allows their ego to chime in too much. Instead he allowed a poker legend share more than he has in the past 20+ years. Great job!

[@talhadad3826]

Exactly what I was thinking...

[@brandongibson5640]

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.

[@ryanrobinson8682]

everyone should aspire to be a bit like daniel. confident, humble, open minded and self reflected. what a nice guy

[@anondescript1134]

And there it is. I noticed Daniel has a very good and healthy understanding of the human psyche but also mental health in general. Then he shared about his wife, and it all makes sense. You gain so much understanding, when you are open, and mental health from somebody who has overcome difficulties. Its always inspiring.

@oldschoolpk Uhhh, that's idiotic. He's doing just fine, poker is a cycle, not an ending unless you catch the best luck at hands, fellow players and bluffs and the best luck at cards. I've seen Dnegs weather 30 straight dead card hands and still top 10. What is your "modern" poker? Little kids sucking on their shirts so they don't show a small mouth tick? Wearing a "Kenny" from Southpark deep hoodest sweatshirt so it doesn't show any of his face. Glasses so dark that they openly admit that they can barely see the table? LOL!!! I think that old old guys would rather play without solvers before playing that embarassing flop of shit.

[@LoociferZ]

@oldschoolpk you're....not very knowledgeable. Negraneu has over 10 years of online poker (they play both,, einstein) AND he gets 10 million a year from GGPoker. Hmmm, how many final wins can you fit inside 10 million dollars? You people should chat at things you know the answers to.

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!

Unquestionably THE BEST poker interview/discussion by far! Thx, both of you!

[@amerimnos]

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]

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.

I don't even play poker but I've watched it on and off on youtube for years, and this guy has always been the guy I pay attention to the most in any heads-up situation.
