Daniel Negreanu Slams Las Vegas Mayor Caroline Goodman's Lockdown Comments


Poker legend Daniel Negreanu has publicly criticized Las Vegas mayor Caroline Goodman for her recent statements about easing lockdown restrictions. In a tweet, Negreanu expressed his disbelief at Goodman's arguments, stating that she was embarrassing herself on national television.

Caroline Goodman called for the US government to ease lockdown restrictions, arguing that the economy of Las Vegas heavily relies on tourism. She also expressed concern that prolonging the lockdown could lead to increased crime and more victims among the population.

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.
