This is over a month late — props to Deadspin for digging it up — but it’s still dumbfounding. Daniel Colman won $15 million in a $1 million buy-in poker game — the same kind of game that resulted in this brutal bad beat. Despite winning, Colman didn’t seem to be very pleased with the results, saying:
First off, I don’t owe poker a single thing. I’ve been fortunate enough to benefit financially from this game, but I have played it long enough to see the ugly side of this world. It is not a game where the pros are always happy and living a fulfilling life. To have a job where you are at the mercy of variance can be insanely stressful and can lead to a lot of unhealthy habits.”
