Daniel Negreanu started streaming on Twitch.TV

This a new boom: more and more professional poker players are starting to stream! Now the time has come for one of the big guns: Daniel Negreanu started streaming on Twitch on yesterday! This is yet another person from Team PokerStars Pro who can be watched on Twitch (other streamers are ElkY, Jason Somerville, Felix Schneiders and Jaime Staples).

It all came to our knowledge after Jamie Staples Tweeted: "The one and only @RealKidPoker is streaming on twitch right now! Check him out here: http://www.twitch.tv/DNegsPoker #twitchpoker"

Daniel Negreanu didn't have to wait long for the viewers: his test run attracted over 4,000 people after just an hour, while the second most popular poker stream at that moment had just 10% of the viewers.
Negreanu streamed only play money games and answered some questions - this is because he was streaming from his home in Las Vegas, and real money online poker is still illegal in that area.

Will we see any more of him? For sure, as he wrote on his Twitter: "Thanks again to @jaimestaples for helping me set up @twitch and @JasonSomerville for making this platform cool. That was fun! More to come."
