Daniel Negreanu Names Jake Schindler Best Modern Era No Limit Hold'em Player


Poker legend Daniel Negreanu has named Jake Schindler as the best No Limit Hold'em tournament player of the modern era. Schindler's impressive resume includes over $25 million in recorded cashes, with the vast majority coming from big buy-in events.

Schindler's achievements include a runner-up spot at the 2017 Super High Roller Bowl, which netted him $3.6 million, and three other 7-figure scores. This impressive resume places him in 17th spot in the all-time list. Schindler recently won $310k at the Aria $25k High Roller, topping up his bankroll nicely.

Negreanu recently bet Phil Hellmuth that he couldn’t show a profit over 50 of the Aria’s $25k buy-ins, a $400k to $200k offer. Hellmuth has won twice so far in the ongoing High Stakes Duel matches against Negreanu. If Hellmuth wins for a third time, the money taken from Negreanu ($350k) would give him a 14 buy-in freeroll to kickstart his Aria run.

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.
