Daniel Negreanu's New Car and Other Poker Highlights from January 2014
Daniel Negreanu started the year with a new car, a gift to himself for a successful 2013. He praised the movie "American Hustle", calling it one of the best films in a long time.
Jason Mercier proposed a bet to go a year without alcohol, with a minimum stake of $100,000. He recalled his first trip outside the US in 2005, noting his hairstyle at the time. Mercier and Sean Deeb both made it to the final table of a Chinese poker tournament at PCA, with Mercier finishing in 5th place.
David Benefield and Dan O'Brien made a bet to reduce their body fat percentage to 11% and 13% respectively by June 1, 2014. Benefield started a blog documenting his progress, while O'Brien also keeps a journal of his observations. Eric Seidel focused on spiritual development, watching the movie "Her" and reading the book "Focus".

Argus RivenI'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.
