Dan Smith is a former chess prodigy who turned a scholarship-level game into one of the most consistent high roller careers in poker. He is known as much for his charity work as his results: his Double Up Drive campaign has raised tens of millions of dollars for effective charities.
Smith's biggest cash came with a third-place finish in the 2018 $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop. He has won Aussie Millions, EPT and Super High Roller Bowl side events, and remains a regular at the biggest buy-ins in Las Vegas.
