This shows once again that Daniel is an live tournament player almost exclusively.
As for buy ins i do not think he gave his all money on all those tournaments, i beet that on Stars organized/sponsored tournaments the entry fee was zero for him.
I dont get it. Is this counted since the begginning of their online career or its just last year? It says overall profit but Negreanus overall online profit didnt go above 150k? Whaaat? Seems to me like Macubaas said he is really good reading people in live, rather than simply calculate odds ice cold like a math wiz. Viktor Bloom has positive haul or this only counts the tourey buy in and itms? And yes probably many of these men receive their sponsor payment in large chunk of tournament money, otherwise how the f*ck Gus Hansen keep on loosing a small countrys GDP if wasnt some deal behind it that made his losses zero out.

G'day Bowie1984
The answer to your question must be talking about in 2013. Daniel Negreanu has made the 2nd most money of all poker players in the world. He has earned more then 21 Million in profits, I did not just pick this number out of thin air. I looked it up, here is a link for you too look at the top 100 poker earners.
link removed once realized it was against the forum rules to post it
Just do a google search for "top poker pro money winners"
Hope this answers your question. Daniel has been offered so much tournament sponsorship money that if he wanted he would never need to pay with his own money ever again. be cool

Daniel Negreanu loves the poker Tournament structure and i think this is the type of poker he really excels at. His concentration levels must be immense because he plays so many tournaments and always seems to do well

€1,041,150 in buy-ins - it is Negreanu's figure just for 2014 in live tournaments. He participated in several high-rollers and had to re-enter in some of them after he got busted.

I have seen him in past tournaments playing, just portions not the whole tourney, and at some point he makes some crazy predictions on what the other player holds. Its like he sees their cards, unbelievable.

Daniel Negreanu plays at the majority of big live events such EPT,WPT,LAPT and of course WSOP.In addition he prefers high roller side events at this tournaments.Who can forget when at last Aussie Millions made three rebuys of 250k $.He finished fourth or third ,don't remember and he made profit of 250k dollars.I like his style and i dont tgink one million dollars is problem for him as he has sponsors and lot of others ways to make money.But its been a while since i spotted him playing at Pokerstars tables.

Negreanu lives in Las Vegas and, logically, can't play on Poker Stars from there. He plays online occasionally when he travels to tourneys to Europe and Australia or to his hometown Toronto.
