Daniel Negreanu has had his worst year ever, ending up losing $2,228,174
Daniel Negreanu, like every year, published information about his successes and failures in the past year. As it turned out, 2023 was the worst year of his career.
Losing up to $2,228,174
Yes the loss is that huge and Daniel attributes it to nest of factors. According to him, he played too many tournaments, up to 145 in total, and he was also unlucky. He made the money 39 times, resulting in an ITM of 26.9%. His highest win was only $200,000 and that was in a $100,000 buy-in heads-up against Doug Polk.
2022 was significantly better
By comparison, Daniel finished 2022 in the black at $1,625,545, thanks in large part to the $3.3 million prize he received for winning the $300,000 buy-in SHR Bowl.
His best year in the last decade was 2014, when Daniel finished in the black to the tune of $7,100,164. This was mainly due to the $8,288,001 he cashed in for finishing second in the Big One for One Drop with a buy-in of $1 million.
What does he have planned for 2024?
His main goal for this year will be to not focus on winning WSOP Player of the Year, which he has already won twice in the past, in 2004 and 2013. He has chased that title every summer, which has required him to play more than 50 bracelet tournaments during the WSOP. He cited a broken scoring system as the reason for not winning the WSOP POY title.
Daniel will tell you more in his new video:
Starting the 2024 off victorious
And with the start of the new year, we also have Daniel's first win. He dominated the PGT Last Chance Event #1 with a buy-in of $10,100, which brought in 91 entries. Daniel Negreanu defeated Daniel Smiljkovic in the final heads-up to take home $218,400.
