From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniel Negreanu (/nɪˈɡrɑːnoʊ/; born July 26, 1974) is a Canadian professional poker player who has won six World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets and two World Poker Tour (WPT) championship titles. The independent poker ranking service Global Poker Index (GPI) recognized Negreanu as the best poker player of the decade in 2014.

As of 2019, he is the third biggest live tournament poker winner of all time (behind only Justin Bonomo and Bryn Kenney, both of whom have won a special multi-million dollar charity tournament), having accumulated over $42,000,000 in prize money. He was named the WSOP Player of the Year in 2004, and in 2013, making him the first and only player to receive the accolade more than once. He was also the 2004–2005 WPT Player of the Year. He is the first player to make a final table at each of the three WSOP bracelet-awarding locations (Las Vegas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific) and the first to win a bracelet at each. In 2014, he was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame.
