Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
We called him, we actually called him Lester.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:22.520
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
A few of my friends call him Lester.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:24.800
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
The greasy guy who tried to get back in and all that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:27.640
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
But yeah.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:31.360
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Yeah, one of my favorite scenes
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:32.200
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
is when they meet out in the desert
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:33.040
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and it's like a 50, 50 odds
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:35.240
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
if you're gonna make it out alive in that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:36.600
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I mean, yeah, there's an epicness to that portrayal of Vegas.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:38.360
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I love, I mean, it's just totally,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:43.400
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I mean, it's obviously more corporate now
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:45.400
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and it's different, but I love those movies.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:46.760
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I love all those movies, just seeing that life.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:49.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
And like I said, if there was a period in time
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:51.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
that I could go back to and just experience it,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:53.080
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
it would be that, you know, right around then.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:55.360
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
There'll be that, playing with a mob and not.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:01:56.760
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I think of like these crime shows today,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:00.180
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
like they're so unrealistic now
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:01.960
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
because if they're in an era that is now,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:04.000
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
like none of this stuff can happen
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:06.620
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
because there's cameras everywhere.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:08.240
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
You can't like get away with these,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:09.660
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
like killing somebody and jumping in a car
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:11.000
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and you're gonna get caught, you know?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:13.640
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
But in the 70s, you know, that stuff happened.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:15.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Across the line, you die.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:18.200
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Yeah, Lake Mead is recently like losing water
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:19.600
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and like every couple of days
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:22.800
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
they're finding more and more bodies from that era.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:24.240
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Oh no.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:26.720
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
They really are.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:27.560
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
You're close with your mom.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:29.280
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
What did you learn about life from your mom?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:30.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
My mother was very generous.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:33.280
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
My mother, she experienced joy through giving people food.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:35.000
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
For the most part, my dad would get them drinks
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:39.920
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and that was how she felt fulfilled, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:42.080
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
She felt good when she like would cook for you.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:45.600
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
And like, she'd be that person you'd come over
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:47.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and she'd be like, are you hungry?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:49.400
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
And you say, no, no, no, I'm okay.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:50.760
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
She's gonna put 15 things in front of you and you'll eat.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:51.960
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
You know, you're gonna eat.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:54.760
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Cause everyone does that to be polite.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:55.600
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
No, no, I'm good.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:56.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
But you know, they will start to eat.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:57.760
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
And just her hospitality in that regard
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:02:59.520
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and just being generous and like being a good host
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:01.520
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
to people and things like that, like.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:04.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
How did that define, like help define who you are
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:07.520
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
as a person, that generosity?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:10.560
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Did it rub off on you?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:13.040
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
It made me think about in my life
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:14.520
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
when it comes to like any sort of business deals
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:17.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
or things like that, I don't wanna get the best of it
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:21.520
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
in such a way where I screw the other person.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:23.920
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I genuinely don't.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:25.600
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I'd much rather you owe me than me owe you.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:26.920
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
So if I hire people, they get paid more
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:29.400
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
than they're supposed to.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:32.160
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
And I'd rather them do that and work towards it
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:33.160
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
rather than feel underpaid.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:36.040
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Cause if they're underpaid, they'll likely under deliver.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:37.200
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Whereas if they feel overpaid,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:39.480
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
then if I need them to do something special,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:41.160
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
they're not gonna be like, hey, I don't get paid for that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:43.280
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Like, yeah, you do.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:45.240
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
You really do.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:46.720
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
So that's certainly like played out in my life
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:47.560
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
where I set it up in such a way where I don't owe,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:49.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
you know, I'm owed, but that's okay.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:53.080
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Cause I can handle taking the worst of it in spots.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:56.080
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I don't like being the person to, you know,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:03:58.600
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
feel like I'm indebted to others.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:01.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Yeah, in some way, the karma of that tends
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:04.320
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
to pay dividends in the longterm.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:06.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Somehow there's somebody up there
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:09.360
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
that's keeping track in some kind of way.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:15.080
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
What advice would you give to young people today
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:17.560
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
in high school and college?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:20.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
How to have a career they can be proud of
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:22.240
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
or maybe how to have a life in general
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:25.200
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
they can be proud of?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:27.300
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
I would say like your 20s is a good opportunity
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:28.900
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
to set yourself up for the rest of your life, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:32.080
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
So while the 20s are a period where you wanna have fun
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:34.880
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and you wanna experience youth,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:38.140
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
it's also a good opportunity to start thinking about
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:40.440
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
what do you want your life to look like
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:42.400
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
in your 30s and your 40s, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:44.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
So I feel like it's the best time
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:46.840
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
to really put yourself out there and take risks
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:48.660
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
and try to hit it, you know, whatever,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:51.200
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
you know, like to work really, really hard
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:53.760
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
to set yourself up.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:55.380
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
Because, and I said this at an event I was speaking at,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:56.400
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
when you're like with poker,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:04:59.880
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
when your bankroll is very, very small,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:05:01.040
Daniel Negreanu: Poker | Lex Fridman Podcast #324
it's replenishable, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0324-large.html#02:05:02.480
