poker player 08-31-04 06:00 PM

Geordie 09-01-04 06:00 PM

Can anyone tell me please how many World Series Final tables Dan has made in the last 10 years pl - and the years. Thanks

Jeremy 09-14-04 06:00 PM

LOL: Your comment can speak for itself. If you cant foild a good hand, you will never be a good poker player.

Rick 09-14-04 06:00 PM

He's a very good player, he looks like your grandpa so some may underestimate him... which is a big mistake.

steve L. 09-15-04 06:00 PM

this guy is amazing

geordie 09-17-04 06:00 PM

he made final tables in 87 95(won it all) 03 04...he is the man

jake 09-23-04 06:00 PM

"Way too conservative. This guy will fold poket Jacks"What good play wouldnt, in a certain situation. THis guy is my favorite player, hes tight yet aggressive, and will bluff in certain situations (and because of his rep usually win). back to back years on the final table that had the biggest fields ever is amazaing. never loud or annoying just plays the game.

pocket7s 09-23-04 06:00 PM

how can you critize his play when the guy has moved through the biggest crowds and has won it all, that is the best acompolishment ever at the wsop, dj your an idiot

smashy 09-25-04 06:00 PM

hes one of the best

bk. 10-04-04 06:00 PM

one of the top 5

Unregistered 10-07-04 06:00 PM

how come all these guys used to be top backgammon players?

JohnCates. 10-11-04 06:00 PM

Dan..... how could they snub YOU from the TOC, and let some of those other idiots in .... What else do you have to do in the WSOP main event to get included.

i love action dan 10-12-04 06:00 PM

simply put, he is the best.

Dyreekio 10-14-04 06:00 PM

he kicked ass last year, and the year before and 95. but I would like to see him do it again. he built up this strong reputation of being sucha tight player. so in the 05 he went all in constantly on crap and it worked for a while but then he got screwed. now his rep is gone

YEA OK! 10-19-04 06:00 PM

Simply put... Dyreekio you are way off... i guarantee his rep for being a tight player is not gone

i suck at poker 10-19-04 06:00 PM

this guy plays so few hands, but obviously he knows what he is doing. i play anything

scott the iceman 10-26-04 06:00 PM

dan harrington is the best player ever in the history of the WSOP n my view- ok he hasn't won 3 titles like Ungar and Moss but he has made 3 final tables and come well up the money in each one placing 1st in 1995, 3rd in 2003, 4th in 2004...as the field gets bigger every year- he gets stronger!

Scuba_Groves 10-26-04 06:00 PM

Why does anyone play a pot against this guy. Go observe him in the first few rounds of a large tournament and you'll see he always has the best of it. I don't get why person after person goes all-in against this dude.

Sammy the Brick 10-26-04 06:00 PM

i'm a tight player i am a consistant winner but i'm also aggresive, aggresive doesn't mean stupid it means a fast hard hitting player, which this guy is, and he's made 4 final tables, glad to see a tight player get his props, and not a dick like hansen

Opus Dog 10-26-04 06:00 PM

Maybe it's just me, but I am convinced that Harrington is actually the Crypt Keeper....

poker analyst 11-02-04 06:00 PM

Harrington made the bluff of the CENTURY in this years WSOP. All preflop, in poor position, against two raising chip leaders, Harrington (on a short stack) looks down at 6,2 offsuit, and calmly raises three quarters of his stack (making it almost 600,000 to play). Everyone folds except Raymer (with a stack about 20 times the size of Harrington) who stares Dan down through his Lizard Glasses holding A,2 which absolutely OWNS Harrington. Raymer motions towards his chips, then tosses his hand, telling Dan, "Take the money." Harrington calmly takes down the pot which eventually saved him from being eliminated before the top 5. Hence the 4th place finish and 1 million dollar payout. Easily the bluff of the century.

Sammy the Brick 11-04-04 06:00 PM

in responce to the bluff of the century, I have to agree. Except that he was soooo easy to read, his eyes were shifting frantically I would have known he was bluffing even without the pocket cam but it did work, that's what being tight gets you. YESS! TIGHT PLAYERS RULE!

i hate the river 11-05-04 06:00 PM

one of the best in the game.made the final table in the main event the past two years.of a field of 839 and over 2600 he is incredable.plus he won it in 95.he WILL make it 3 years in a roll in 2005

Opus Dog 11-08-04 06:00 PM

Perhaps the "Bluff of the Century" (a century less than 5 years old...) can be attributed to the Crypt Keeper's normal/usual/extremely tight play - rather than

ray 11-09-04 06:00 PM

what the hell is the deal with that damned silly ass green hat,, i'll buy him a new one if he will just throw that 1 in the trash

Jaime 11-24-04 06:00 PM

That was a great play by Harrington. Because it worked. And...because he's Dan Harrington and he commands that respect. Just for kicks; another candidate for bluff of the century has to be last years final table, heads up Farha versus Moneymaker. I forgot the circumstances, but the amateur bluffed all in with nothing and Farha let him take it down...definitely worth consideration bc it was heads up at the final table

pokerstud85 11-24-04 06:00 PM

i want that hat....he made the final table with it...why chance a good thing?

djnpa_30 11-25-04 06:00 PM

action dan is one of the best ever ...1995 winner 2 final tables..need i say more? maybe he plays with no frills, but hes a solid player that every pro fears .
