DN is playing Isildur's game. If it was live poker, DN would crush him. And I think the reason DN calls a lot of times when he knows he is beat is just to see if his read was right. I think getting the read right is more important to him than losing some money. Plus, if he sees that he IS reading the guy right, then that will help him win a lot more money off of the guy later in the match. I also didn't see the need for him to mention the names of the guys he won back some of his money off of. He does have an ego, and I guess it was already hard on him to admit that Isildur was the better player, so he had to compensate for that by bringing up the fact that he won back some of the money he lost, and mentioned names so ppl would know he was telling the truth. He is still my fav player, but I don't know if he'll ever be able to beat Isildur online multi-tabling. BTW, as a few days ago, Isildur was down 500k so far this year. I guess that 150k he took off of DN helped, but I wonder where he's at for the year now.
