Daniel Negreanu Challenges Tim Reilly to Lie Detector Test Over Fake Vaccination Card Allegations


Poker legend Daniel Negreanu has made headlines by offering $10,000 for Tim Reilly to take a lie detector test. This offer comes amidst accusations that Reilly used a fake vaccination card to participate in the World Series of Poker (WSOP).

Tim Reilly, a vocal critic of vaccine mandates, denies using a fake vaccination card. Nicholas Palma, a notorious poker figure, accused Reilly of paying a CVS employee to fake his vaccination status. Alex Jacob, a 'Jeopardy' star and poker pro, also questioned the timing of Reilly's tweets about his vaccination status, suggesting inconsistencies in his claims.

Negreanu, known for his high-stakes wagers, explained that he can afford to spend $10,000 to call out lies. He also mentioned that Reilly's response to his offer was to state he’d “take one for free,” but only if Negreanu would answer one question. Alex Jacob ran a Twitter poll comparing anti-vaxxers to social activists, adding to the ongoing debate.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
