Daniel Negreanu is officially the highest earning tournament player of all time, with over $30 million in prize winnings and six WSOP titles plus two WPT titles on his list of accomplishments. He decided to do an "Ask me Anything" type of thread on reddit and he honestly and directly replied to most of the questions. It's worth checking out!

Here are some example questions and answers you can find in the thread:
Question: What's a common tell amateurs have?
Daniel Negreanu: glancing at their chips quickly when they like the flop

Here is my question: Let's say you would commit all your time, energy and money to making as much money playing poker, what/where would you play and how much do you think could you average a year?
Daniel Negreanu: I would play in Macau and think I could average $7 million a year.

Question:Who's the most fun to play with on the tour?
Daniel Negreanu: I'd say Phil Hellmuth. He is quite a character and beating him in a hand creates a lot of fun. I can't help but laugh at him he is OUT THERE! haha

Question:Easy question. F, Marry, Kill? Liv Boeree, Joanna Krupa & Annie Duke?
Daniel Negreanu: You couldn't have possibly made this any easier:

Marry Liv, she is smart and cool F Joanna Krupa, she is Joanna Krupa! Kill Annie Duke, gladly. She is awful lol

Since I know most would read only to see if there s a comment about recent VIP changes - here's his response :

  I would have made changes to the program years ago, but if I were in charge I would have made sure I gave ample notice that the changes were coming. They are essential, but I wish they would wait until Jan 1, 2017 to implement them and I wouldn't target high limit players by removing their VPPs



Guess it's s smart response and couldn't really make a harsher statement without risking his contract

i mean... he basically said what is true in the context of pokerstars running a business. they should have done it years ago to make more moneys. and they should have done it the way he said.

I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance, by running away from the scene of an accident.

his podcast he did with JoeIngram & Ansky seems news worthy



I personally think it's awesome he's willing to do an interview like this and be as open and honest as he was. There's plenty of other Stars pros just laying back in the weeds not saying a damn thing. DN prob gets like 7 figs/year from Stars and he's willing to say a lot of the stuff they did was wrong and handled really poorly

online bob is actually a pretty smart person, not at all like the creepy fucker that sits in the sofa telling me he does nasty shit to me when im asleep - pinball

Daniel Negreanu would use reddit

It seems to be not very profitable in the long run to play those kind of hands. - Gus Hansen

The first half seemed like he was using the timing of the release as the one thing to show he's on "our side"
But when Ansky came on he was really open about the (flawed) decision making process at pokerstars, that he disagrees with HS rake takeaway and many more. And also that he can't do much about it, it's pretty much entirely the non-poker playing corporate managers who aim at P+L, balance Sheet and financial quarterly reports.

And if I were one of them, I'd totally go ahead and abuse my monopoly of 75% of the market as well - whenever this happens in any industry the customer gets screwed over and there's not much he can do about it

93% Sure!
