Daniel Negreanu Net Worth: Poker Tournaments = $20 million The figure quoted above is a lot less than other figures quoted for Daniel Negreanu’s net worth. They see his total tournament earnings, they add a few million for his other endeavors and they arrive at a figure that seems unrealistic. Total life earnings: $42,053,305. Latest cash: $14,890 on 13-Dec-2020. Click here to see the details of Daniel Negreanu's 355 cashes.
About completing this epic feat, Negreanu said, “This was a personal goal of mine, winning it three times before anyone else got to two. The all-time money list isn’t something that I can contend for anymore with my schedule, but WSOP POY is an achievement I can give myself a shot to win.”
Negreanu topped the leaderboard as the only player with more than 4,000 points edging out Robert Campbell and Shaun Deeb who had a chance until the very last event. In the last event, the €500 Colossus, Deeb came within a few eliminations of winning but he ultimately busted in 11th place. Deeb needed a fifth-place or better to win WSOP Player of the Year. Despite there being no cash reward for winning these honors, Negreanu was ecstatic with the win.
“I love it. I won the first one they ever had, have always been a stats nerd every since I was a little kid, and I thrive on best all-around leaderboard formats. I’m as aware as anyone that the system is flawed, but I knew a couple of years ago I had to choose: give up because my schedule made it near impossible to win, or adjust and play all the small events and rack up as many cashes as I can.”
In total Negreanu cashed in 24 different events, making five final tables in the process. Negreanu’s best result was a second-place finish in the $100,000 High Roller in Las Vegas where he cashed for $1.1 million.

“It’s special to me, the WSOP is special to me. People always bring up the cash prize, but the truth is, I never really played poker for the money. It was always a passion for me that superseded money. This is probably why it took me a while to build a bankroll in my early years because I was reckless with money. Being broke has never scared me, similar to what you hear from a guy like Bryn Kenney who goes for it.”
About the grind and the road traveled to lock up the 2019 World Series of Poker Player of the Year Negreanu was very grateful for his reception in Rozvadov at King’s Casino.
“It was a real grind, I’d never been to Rozvadov before and had no idea what to expect and in all honesty, I’ve never experienced red carpet first-class hospitality like that before, and I’ve been to a lot of places. King’s Casino staff were really great to me and put up with me when I was stressed out and maybe not acting like I should.”
I’m very proud of the year I had and super grateful I get to play a game for a living.
Wow, what an emotional roller coaster this was!
I did say I like dramatic finishes and this one certainly fits the bill!

While Negreanu now has three WSOP Player of the Year honors, he’s still stuck on six total WSOP gold bracelets with his last win coming in 2014 and his last Las Vegas victory all the way back in 2008. But all things considered, Negreanu values his Player of the Year titles a bit more as he thinks the bracelets will start coming again eventually.
“This is such a unique achievement, to be able to win this three times and put me in a place all my own. I know bracelets will come, I just need to keep plugging away. The way the POY points system works it’s actually really hard to win POY without a bracelet. You get double points from 1st to 2nd. So even with two 2nds that basically ties a win in terms of points.”
Going forward, Negreanu will take some time to reset and unwind after a few very hectic months but we’re hoping to see him compete inside the PokerGO Studio for the Poker Masters that kicked off today. Relive Negreanu’s chase for World Series of Poker Player of the Year through his vlogs. Watch and follow the Poker Masters on Poker Central Live Reporting and PokerGO.
Poker Hall of Famer Daniel Negreanu was born on July 26, 1974 in Toronto, Ontario in Canada. His parents were of Romanian origin and hoped to migrate to a better life in the United States but ended up in Canada.
He dropped out of high school, one credit short of graduation, to pursue a career playing poker. His first gamble paid off as he has become one of the most successful poker players of all-time. Negreanu has won six World Stars of Poker bracelets and two World Poker Tour championships. As of 2018, he is the 2nd most winningest player in Live Tournament Poker with an estimated earnings of $39.5M. Negreanu was WSOP Player of the Year in 2004 and 2013, making him the only player to win the accolade twice and in different decades. He is also the first player to make the final table in all of the WSOP’s bracelet winning locations: Las Vegas, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
A Very Colorful Lovelife

As colorful as his poker career is his lovelife as Negreanu has been involved with several women in his life. At the age of 16, he dated poker player Evelyn Ng. He married Lori Lin Weber in 2005 but they divorced two years later. Since his divorce, Negreanu has been involved with several women poker players and celebrities.
She was rumored to be dating American actress Shannon Elizabeth whom he tutored in playing poker. He was also hooked with actress and PokerStars TV host Amanda Leatherman. After Leatherman, he was linked to Hungarian model Krisztina Polgar, who was Miss Earth Hungary in 2008.
In 2013, his lovelife became more public when he appeared in the season 6 premier of Bravo TV’s reality dating show Millionaire Matchmaker. In the show, he was paired with a woman named Lindsay Blalock. Most recently, he was dating Marissa Rodney Rachelle, a hairstylist from Las Vegas. Last June, during the 2018 WSOP, he admitted in his Vlog #25 that he is no longer in a relationship with Marissa Rachelle. Who he’s dating now is another story. For now, let’s go to the topic at hand which is Daniel Negreanu’s net worth.
