Poker Pro Daniel Negreanu Wins Fourth WSOP Bracelet
It's been quite a WSOP-winning dry spell for the man who many consider the best all-around tourney player in the game.
Daniel Negreanu captured 2004 WSOP Player of the Year honors when he won an event and made, to borrow a phrase from Dr. Pauly, a "redunkulous" five final tables.
Since then, he's made a few final tables but no bracelets.
That changed early morning when Negreanu took down Event #20 ($2,000 Limit Hold'em).
While Negreanu banked $207k for the win, the story many are talking about is the side bet he has with Phil Ivey and Ted Forrest. While we're still unclear on the terms with Forrest, Ivey, who likes to gamble, had a $200k-per-bracelet bet with Negreanu for the 2008 WSOP. We told you Negreanu was running hot.
