Daniel Negreanu is the most recognisable poker player on the planet. Born in Toronto to Romanian parents, "Kid Poker" moved to Las Vegas as a young pro and has been winning tournaments for three decades, including seven WSOP bracelets, two WPT titles and two WSOP Player of the Year awards.
Negreanu's reading ability at the table became legendary during the poker boom, and his vlogs and streams have kept him at the centre of the game ever since. His largest cash was an $8.3 million runner-up finish in the 2014 $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop. He is a GGPoker ambassador.
