Daniel Negreanu Reveals Decade of Poker Profits and Losses

Daniel Negreanu has made a profit of $1.2 million per year from his tournament play over the last decade. The Canadian poker superstar has regularly posted his yearly profit/loss stats, but with Covid-19 causing some problems this past year or more, it has skewed the numbers slightly. Negreanu profited by $1.5 million per year from 2013 to 2019.

In 2013, Negreanu won $1,087,160 from the WSOP Asia-Pacific Main Event and $979,955 from the WSOP Europe Main Event. His total was boosted by a massive cash at the $1million buy-in Big One for One Drop in 2014, where he finished second behind Daniel Colman to pick up $8,288,001. The next few years saw DNegs swap lean and fat years, and the realisation that he was now struggling to prove himself a winning tournament player saw him enlist some help.

Negreanu finished second in the WPT Five Diamond $100k buy-in Super High Roller. That cash was a 2nd post behind Dan Smith at the WPT Five Diamond $100k buy-in Super High Roller, the final table including Ike Haxton and Bryn Kenney among other notables. Negreanu handed over $1.2 million to Doug Polk in their online Grudge Match this year. That was followed by giving a $350,000 donation to Phil Hellmuth in a 3-0 loss to the “White Magic-master” in High Stakes Duel II.
