Would Daniel Negreanu easily win a cardschat tournament against our platinum members or would he have some difficulties?

that's the beauty of poker, where you can take on any player and beat him, as long as you are prepared as well. anything can happen in poker.

I think he would have problems. There are very good players here at the platinum level. Furthermore, Negreanu is used to reading people at the top of the Poker world. Here he would be in unfamiliar territory. He would be a strong candidate to win, but his life would not be easy.

He might struggle with anticipating what novice players will do. Or, he might not.

He would be favourite but also pros are affected by variance and bad luck.
For example someone calls with worse and gives you a bad beat

Obvious! Any player with a good understanding of the game will easily win in these tournaments, considering that the technical level of the players is very weak.

Nope. If done did not get the cards he would have no chance at all. You have to get the cards to progress in a MTT.

You have to win a lot of coinflips and 60-40% situations especially when the blinds go under 20BB. Not much skill in that. So he may have a 10% edge on the field.

He would have a huge edge over the field

But there is no guarantee he wins

Due to the luck and variance involved in the game of poker

Everyone has a chance. Daniel may have more of them, given his status in the poker world and his experience. but this does not mean that he will definitely win, but he will definitely be among the favorites.

I think DNeg would get wrecked against the top 15% and he would struggle just like anybody else in that group of the playerbase.

No one could easily win a poker tournament. That's why everybody like to play Poker than others.

Hello everyone.
I don't think so. Some high level player says that there are so many strange moves during freerolls and it can make the game too unpredictable.

I would assume it would be business as usual for Daniel, so no. Now, the real question is how do we get him to play with us? I've got some 9-ball questions to ask him about.

No, not without the cards. The cards dealt outweigh greatly the skill of a player. The fact that you need to win multiple flips means that his edge would be minimal I would think.

He would not have the patience and bust early.

I think that he will need like 10 attempts to reach the final table :)

I don't know if Daniel Negreanu would win them all, but he would do a surreal job and the majority would definitely win!(y)

Of course Negreanu could win any Platinum freeroll but it wouldn´t be that easy.

There is always an element of chance, but I think if he wanted to win he could. It would be a little intimidating for us mortals to play him.
