Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu is arguably one of the greatest poker
players of all-time. He was named Player of the Year by
CardPlayer Magazine in 2004 and he currently sits in 3rd position for all-time poker winners
with career earnings of approximately 8.5 million dollars.
Daniel loves to talk at the table and
is very entertaining to watch as you can see in our Poker
Videos section. He has an amazing ability of reading his
opponents, which few other players posses.
Daniel was born in Toronto, Ontario,
Canada on July 26th, 1974. As a young boy he
learned that he had a great gift when it came to betting.
He would bet on anything from Pool to Poker often taking
money from people twice his age.
At 21, Negreanu made the move to Vegas
to play poker full time. Shortly after moving to Vegas his
luck changed and he suffered several losses which forced him
to return home in Toronto. In 1997 his luck improved as he
was named the best all-around player at the World Series of
Poker (WSOP). The next year he went on to become the
“youngest WSOP champion”, which earned him the nickname “Kid
Poker”.
Since 23, Daniel has been consistently
winning at the poker tables. He has contributed some of his
secrets in Doyle Brunson’s Super System 2, as well as many
other articles for different books and magazines.
In 2003 he launched his own poker site,
Full Contact Poker. His site has become one of the most
popular sites on the net due to Daniel’s popularity. He has
frequent online blog entries where he discusses his
day-to-day activities, and is frequently active in the
forums section on his site.
Other than cards, Daniel is a big
hockey fan. He also likes comedy, writing and playing
golf. Negreanu even has his own video game, “Stacked”.
Currently Negreanu is living in Vegas with his wife Lori.
He can often be found playing in some of the biggest cash
games in Vegas’ best casinos. He is also the star on
several hit Poker TV Shows such as the PPT, High Stakes
Poker.
Daniel is definitely one of the most respected and well
liked poker players out there. To learn more about Daniel,
