its not the first podcast with this format. and some of the previous ones are already quite popular. great format though everyone will agree with you there
Lemon Poker : french speaking ? You did put the accent on "é", smells like you have a FR keyboard :) For the repliers : To me Dnegs was wrong and admitted it (sincerely), so yes that sequence is funny, and y'all that are saying he was right in the first place, you're NOT ! 😁😇😜.
Botez's smooth and quick check at 7:32 definitely gave away information she had two pair lol, plus her confident smile! Entertaining and engaging video, congratulations to both!
I think the problem was she was looking at her chips while checking. Daniel made a video about this, when people look at their stack after a flop is because they loved the cards
I don't even know when and how that hour passed. It was just pure joy to watch you both. I like that the stack sizes weren't even shown, so that we're not focusing on the wrong thing here.
I read this reply while beginning to watch the video. I thought this was just a kind gesture to say but it's for real. That hour just flew by. What a great time even for the viewers
Such a great banter. Alex is the kind of person I'd like to see as new gen poker player. A LOT of learning ahead though. Daniel, as always, funny and authentic.
D-Negs is so personable!! I love to watch him whether it’s high stakes stream or just chatting. He is really entertaining and so genuine. Also agree with others that this podcast/poker/tutorial is excellent! I’ll be looking for the others and more to come!
Not sure about Alexandra's live tell, but I picked up on Daniel's headscratch as he says "I have a lot of faith and trust in the team at GG" at 23:19 🤣
Watching two of my favorite people in the world discussing two of my favorite pastimes, there's just too much to like! Now we need to watch them again, but playing chess!!!
This is my favorite so far. I live hearing the comments, thoughts, strategies, etc. so much better than watching a live stream which I also love! I don’t want highlights
I've watched Daniel for maybe a decade now... 10:59 Is one the the most accidently funny and brutally honest things I have ever heard from him; not that he isn't always honest. However, he is almost always a humble and nice guy until provoked. So, to hear him actually say, "This idiot just costed me big time and he has no shot.", was quite a pleasant surprise for me.
Wow, I really enjoyed watching and learning from you both. Great rapor! You both have that "special" personality, that makes watching you play Poker so much fun. Thanks!
What a nice video. I love these educational videos, please do more of these. Like for beginners. I just started and don’t really know what cards to play
I am in live with Botez sisters and everything they put on YT! Excellent content from this one. She is smart, gorgeous, confident, very believable, and shoots it straight.
Great teacher student vibe between the two, funny, and insightful. As a novice poker player it was a ton of fun to watch with some great tips to pick up on. I hope Alexandra does well in her poker endeavors and Daniel is a fun and interesting pro to follow. Best of luck you two!
He folds KQ because first, the opponent tells him i have a strong hand because the option of 3 betting is mostly a strong range, Then on the flop suddenly a speed check with killer eyes.
Congrats on becoming a GG Ambassador Ms Botez . You're a lucky human . Hopefully i see you on GG in a tourney or at cash tables or maybe some PLO. Cool Vid Daniel ! Some great info. Ty and Cheers
A really nice segment. I’ve played for far too long! I think one of the first lessons I learnt is that poker is a game of deceit and confusion. The second lesson I learnt was that the first person you deceive and confuse is yourself.
At 28:55, nice all-in move from Negreanu. In a really good game, people could bluff-catch you with a bluff, but that's not good for online play nowadays. Play your hands carefully and bet strong with hands that are genuinely interested in paying you
When you mention "women in poker" and "aggression", two things came to mind. 1. Gary Carson devoted an entire chapter of his 2001 "The Complete Guide to Hold 'Em" to women in poker, mostly focusing in on how women could best exploit the "underestimate me" side of the ball. He also did throw in a line that successful women in poker tended to play more aggressive than their male counterparts. So it's at least been discussed. 2. Annette Obrestad, particularly the 2010 National Heads-up Poker Championship. While more aggression MIGHT be overcompensation, it might just also be pressing every possible advantage. She annihilated Phil Hellmuth, and though she lost to Doyle Brunson, Brunson stated that he'd felt outplayed. (Carson also warned in his book that if you played the way he told you to, the most likely reputation you'd get is that of a maniac.)
That was a fun watch. Have enjoyed watching you play poker for 25 years and watching Alex also. The both of you playing heads up was a good time. Thanks to the both of you and be well.
Probably not gonna be seen, but in case you do: what I appreciate about dnegs is that he stays true. Money and moderate fame doesn't change him or his vpersona. Soldier with a soul
Botez’s tell is that when she flopped two pair, her face changed from a laugh to a stern facial expression. Don’t forget she was contemplating a 3-bet post-flop which would indicate she had at least an ace in the hole. The few last hands she played, when she didn’t have anything, she checked nonchalantly.
The live tell Daniel told us to comment about: She looks at the flop and the smile slowly fades off her face to reveal a more stoic nature. She then glances down, but I can’t really tell if it’s a chip glance or not, def could be. I play with a guy who’s always super talkative and laid back at the table but every time he has a big hand he shuts up and sits up in his chair, this reminded me of that tell.
at 20:15 just a tad before that daniel told her what he had... notice how daniel mentioned every possible card that beats her other than the one he had... J, 9, and others but never mentioned the 4 :P thats the key to this hand
Thanks a lot, i'm a great fan since like ten years of DNegs, and think the best of Alex. You are the two players who changed my view on chess (ho yes and the Queen's Gambit series too :) What is really lacking, is a display of the stacks.Or at least please give sometimes a clear image of them and the chip color code at the beginning... That's like watching a film, but all the dialog from one of the main characters are missing, you really miss a point, i mean ! Also, would be glad to know what are the stakes (the chip/$ ratio is not really important, my guess is that when you invite someone to create vidéo content, you wont take money from him in the filmed game. I think of a "keep what you won, but no loss" or maybe loss divided by some factor, but wins 1:1.... Unsure if my curiosity will be understood (sorry for the spooky language, i'm french) but at least, SHOW US THE STACKS PLEASE ! ❤❤🤩
It's based off the cards you're holding and the line players take, i.e. rasing or limping preflop, checking, betting, or raising on flop, turn, etc, taking the board and aggression or lack thereof into account.
@7:30 She considers 3 betting for a moment displaying a strong position (which is really the give away) and then while smugly smirking at the flop she decides to happily check setting a trap for Daniel
I love how any time someone is great at something they have to be autistic lmao like you can’t be great without people trying to find something wrong also
I love how any time someone is great at something they have to be autistic lmao like you can’t be great without people trying to find something wrong also
He's stated before that he has Tourettes. It comes out in his arms, shoulders and eyes. If I recall he said the blinking thing was the last tick that he can't really break. Is it a tell? who knows lol, but I reckon it's something.
7:32, she looks down at her chips when the flop comes, was thinking of betting for a split second and checked super fast. Didn't actually even need that read though, he established preflop she was strong, and when the A hit and she immediately checked, didn't have to think what to do like she would have as a new player if she had a pair that was lower than the A. Easy hand to get away from for DNegs.
This is one of the most unique videos i've seen in a while. I think you found a brand new brilliant format. Podcast Poker. Super fun to watch.
not really
its not the first podcast with this format. and some of the previous ones are already quite popular. great format though everyone will agree with you there
wow. doing your thing and talking about it at the same time, someone should write this down
Loved this content and original idea, keep up the great videos
Seen this years ago
"I played chess against...Pokémon!"
- Daniel Negreanu
Technically her name is supposed to be pronounced like that so he's got the right spirit lol
Mew2 would be a real tuff nut to bluff, if he bluffed at all. ;D
That is how her name is pronounced
It's supposed to be pronounced like that lol.. you're the incorrect one
Lemon Poker : french speaking ? You did put the accent on "é", smells like you have a FR keyboard :)
For the repliers : To me Dnegs was wrong and admitted it (sincerely), so yes that sequence is funny, and y'all that are saying he was right in the first place, you're NOT ! 😁😇😜.
"You looked at the flop, and your eyes quickly glanced at your chips so I knew you hit it" 🤯
She also immediately looked right at him, which was the most confident she'd seemed to that point by a mile
Yes, she checked the flop and instantly look at Daniel 😂😂
@@lrt8735 You know ever since he said that I started trying to fake look at my chips when I want them to check. Nobody cared :D
common knowledge since Mike Caro's book from 1984. Do you even read bro
@@busfahrer09 what are this "read"?
Always remember anything you do at the chess table conveys information
True, you can't be all loosey-goosey eating a sandwich
@@guilhermesoares7857comedians
literally, everything you can do is to make a move 😂
So you can deliver false information.
@@guilhermesoares7857 ...being on the phone...
Daniel is actually a great interviewer and holds conversation so well. Refreshing poker video
Weird comment... since she asked like, 4 times as many questions as he did.
He is so good at table talk. He both gave a good interview and knew what she held most hands.
@@patrickhenry4675 he's a good conversationalist, but... she's carrying the interview part of it on her back.
Botez's smooth and quick check at 7:32 definitely gave away information she had two pair lol, plus her confident smile! Entertaining and engaging video, congratulations to both!
I think the problem was she was looking at her chips while checking. Daniel made a video about this, when people look at their stack after a flop is because they loved the cards
@@andreafonso3542 yup she might as well have been lickin her chops staring at that stack. You can see the gears turning lmao.
Couldve folded right there sometimes even when you can check its pointless
@@andreafonso3542 I agree with you. She also showed a lot of her upper teeth like she was going to eat that pot.
it was a chip glance he says it later in the video
I don't even know when and how that hour passed. It was just pure joy to watch you both. I like that the stack sizes weren't even shown, so that we're not focusing on the wrong thing here.
I read this reply while beginning to watch the video. I thought this was just a kind gesture to say but it's for real. That hour just flew by. What a great time even for the viewers
Botez seems like a natural interviewer, great at getting insightful answers out of Negreanu
The difference between Negreanu and Helmuth with new players is insane.
To what are you referencing?
@@its_kins Mr Beasts poker event he threw like 2-3 years ago
This is a great format and would love to see you continue it with other up and coming players, e.g. Lonis, Becker, Rampage, etc.
Such a great banter. Alex is the kind of person I'd like to see as new gen poker player. A LOT of learning ahead though. Daniel, as always, funny and authentic.
I’d trust in her ability to learn the game, chess players are next level smart
Alex is obviously a great chess player but really not professional level at poker.
D-Negs is so personable!!
I love to watch him whether it’s high stakes stream or just chatting. He is really entertaining and so genuine.
Also agree with others that this podcast/poker/tutorial is excellent! I’ll be looking for the others and more to come!
Really like the format, and it's actually very informative/tutorial - thanks, great video! ♥

I've watched these two - to see them together? Such a fun stream to watch!
I want to see a rematch with chess!
not really
@@itsthizzbaby cry
Watching two of my favorite people in the world discussing two of my favorite pastimes, there's just too much to like! Now we need to watch them again, but playing chess!!!
*Daniel was too embarrassed to release the chess footage* 😂
@@ohiorushbaby Lol. I'm sure she destroyed him. Just like he could destroy her in cards.
This is my favorite so far. I live hearing the comments, thoughts, strategies, etc. so much better than watching a live stream which I also love! I don’t want highlights
It s so exciting to see 2 romanians making content!
Bro giving her the masterclass promo video with the chip glance tell
Daniel is on a very small list of og pros that have evolved and can hang with the new math players coming up. one of the best imo
Love both of these! Very entertaining video!
not really
I've watched Daniel for maybe a decade now... 10:59 Is one the the most accidently funny and brutally honest things I have ever heard from him; not that he isn't always honest. However, he is almost always a humble and nice guy until provoked. So, to hear him actually say, "This idiot just costed me big time and he has no shot.", was quite a pleasant surprise for me.
What a delightful conversation. I follow both. I learned a few things I didn't already know about both of them.
"I'll allow myself to do the full Hellmuth" 😂
This was a great format podcast. Loved it! Thanks for teaching the audience a thing or two.
Its wild that this is essentially a big ad for GGpoker, yet I have no way to make an account living in the USA.
VPN
Exactly man it's so frustrating
And if you use a VPN you can get into trouble if you win and try to cash out. If you lose it's fine
Man, the romanian in me, enjoy this sooo much. Love you guys!
What a great combo of two geniuses i'd never expected to see together
Wow, I really enjoyed watching and learning from you both. Great rapor! You both have that "special" personality, that makes watching you play Poker so much fun.
Thanks!
Great video! More like this, please.
What a nice video. I love these educational videos, please do more of these. Like for beginners. I just started and don’t really know what cards to play
2 of my favorites! Great video with incredibly useful info. Thank you very much!
Ive been watching daniel for years and got into botez thru chess streams and i absolitely adored this content
Best negreanu video of the year.
Whoever added the Homer Simpon "Nerd!" is my hero, thanks for the laugh!
I am in live with Botez sisters and everything they put on YT! Excellent content from this one. She is smart, gorgeous, confident, very believable, and shoots it straight.

He folds KQ because first, the opponent tells him i have a strong hand because the option of 3 betting is mostly a strong range, Then on the flop suddenly a speed check with killer eyes.
Wish the game went longer i love listening to Daniel
Don’t really play chess or poker, but this conversation was extremely enjoyable and informative😎
Congrats on becoming a GG Ambassador Ms Botez . You're a lucky human . Hopefully i see you on GG in a tourney or at cash tables or maybe some PLO. Cool Vid Daniel ! Some great info. Ty and Cheers
surprised they don't say one word in Romanian considering they both have Romanian last names
I think I single handly brought poker back to life with how long I watch poker vids😂
A really nice segment. I’ve played for far too long! I think one of the first lessons I learnt is that poker is a game of deceit and confusion. The second lesson I learnt was that the first person you deceive and confuse is yourself.
Really cool content ! Brilliant as usually ! Thx Dan
At 28:55, nice all-in move from Negreanu. In a really good game, people could bluff-catch you with a bluff, but that's not good for online play nowadays. Play your hands carefully and bet strong with hands that are genuinely interested in paying you
4:44 He actually said her name correctly. Her name is Imane so her streamer name is pronounced Poke Imane (Yes just like pokemon)
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this entire video as a played online poker. Great conversation.
7:30
The most confident check I've ever seen in my life 🤣
9999 habit
140 body
139 say
138 eyes
137 nervous
136 fight spirit
Great content and interview love these two.
One hour that flew by, really enjoyable.
Whoever is managing Alex is genius - this is one of the best marriages of talent I've seen anywhere

18:30 Interesting how he calls out all the possibilities, except the one that he has himself 😄
Such good content. Engaging, unique and genuine!! Looking forward to more of this kind of content.
I learned a ton from the video. Thanks
That was a fun watch. Have enjoyed watching you play poker for 25 years and watching Alex also. The both of you playing heads up was a good time. Thanks to the both of you and be well.
do more of these. good stuff
This was a great watch. More of this please.
4:45, Pokimon is the correct way to say it, since her name is Imane, which is pronouced "Imon/Iman"
Probably not gonna be seen, but in case you do: what I appreciate about dnegs is that he stays true. Money and moderate fame doesn't change him or his vpersona. Soldier with a soul
4:50 I love how Alex has to jump in and "correct" Daniel with the incorrect pronunciation of Poki's name lmfao
What do they mean who’s more likely? Aren’t they both as likely? I am VERY new to this
there needs to be a series of these.
i think it was the pause when she tried to figure out what to do after dnegs raise.. we didnt see her face so i dont think it was a chip glance
29:12 I really love that timing on the music edit. Whoever does the editing on this channel should get a raise. Love small details like that
Botez’s tell is that when she flopped two pair, her face changed from a laugh to a stern facial expression. Don’t forget she was contemplating a 3-bet post-flop which would indicate she had at least an ace in the hole. The few last hands she played, when she didn’t have anything, she checked nonchalantly.
I just found your content and it's all really interesting, obviously you know this but please keep it up. This particular one's my favorite :3
Daniel has been my favorite poker player for years!
I could watch podcast poker forever
14:37 so he says she should have called there because if a big card comes she will be in trouble, but isn't getting him to fold better there?
Chess player and poker player here. This video was double prizes! 😁
favourite video of yours by far!
This is really fun to watch. 👍👍👍
Should’ve released the chess footage! Loved the poker btw.

What a gem Botez is
The collab we needed but didn't deserve 😅
“He called me with queen 10 honey”
Lives in my head rent free.😂
Two of my fave content creators
This format is amazing!
Great video! I'm also a fan of Botez....so you have to show the vid on the chess game...😊
at 20:15 just a tad before that daniel told her what he had... notice how daniel mentioned every possible card that beats her other than the one he had... J, 9, and others but never mentioned the 4 :P thats the key to this hand
yeah this was interesting , seeing how much I enjoy poker and chess. Good Podcast with 2 good ppl

It was the way she stopped smiling and then she started grinning and stared right at him like she was confident but trying to hide it
29:28 How do you know who would have a higher chance to get what? Is it just statistics?
It's based off the cards you're holding and the line players take, i.e. rasing or limping preflop, checking, betting, or raising on flop, turn, etc, taking the board and aggression or lack thereof into account.
@@mudblood9699 thank you!
@@luckymedic1438 and also a lot on how he acted on previous hands! a passive guy that suddenly 4 bets preflop for example

I have been a Dnegs fan forever and will never quit being a fan. Is he on the Spectrum? If so, that explains his greatness..
More likely Botez is.
