There is little that can be said about the all-time leading money winner in tournament poker as of 2015, Canada’s Daniel Negreanu, that hasn’t already been said before. Perhaps the biggest thing that can be said is that, in the 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event, Negreanu is achieving a goal that he has fallen short of previously.

Elected to the Poker Hall of Fame in 2014 in his first year of eligibility, Negreanu’s poker resume is replete with tournament championships from around the world. He first broke through to the poker community in 1998, winning his first WSOP bracelet in his first visit to poker’s Mecca in a Pot Limit Hold’em event.

It would take another five years before he would pull down his second, but Negreanu has gone on to win six WSOP bracelets total. In fact, he is the only player to have won WSOP bracelets on all three of its major platforms (the WSOP in Las Vegas, the 2013 World Series of Poker Europe High Roller championship, and the 2013 World Series of Poker Asia/Pacific Main Event title).

Negreanu’s resume is almost as impressive on the World Poker Tour. In 2004, he captured two million-dollar first place prizes for winning the WPT Borgata Poker Open and Five Diamond World Poker Classic on his way to winning the WPT Player of the Year award.

Online, Negreanu has a Spring Championship of Online Poker title to his credit and has won the WPT and CardPlayer Magazine Player of the Year Awards on one occasion and taken the WSOP Player of the Year award twice, the only player to ever achieve that feat.

Bottom line… Negreanu is one of poker’s most visible and strongest overall players. If his track record of success above isn’t enough, then Negreanu’s $30,095,734 in career tournament earnings should speak even louder.

Negreanu was in the middle of the pack late on Day 6 of the 2015 WSOP Main Event with his 7.03 million in chips. Much to the poker community’s chagrin, he busted in 11th place for $526,000.
