The PokerStars original documentary about the life and career of Daniel Negreanu is now available to watch through the online streaming service.
Fittingly in the week this year's WSOP got underway, Netflix have announced that KidPoker, the feature length documentary from PokerStars that surrounds the life of Daniel Negreanu, is now available in numerous locations for service subscribers to watch.

Reading a couple of things for poker players is just fine, but watching documentaries about their lives, is just a waste of time. Watching a video of hoe to play poker, or a tournament is another thing.
Watching a cartoon can be more fun and constructive i think
I was also going to say the same or something similar of what Mober said, I mean if it was a documentary about Daniel giving tips on how to play the game then it's worthy otherwise that is his life, what is he eating, with whom he is sleeping etc... is just waste of time.

hmmm lets think for a second here... new documentary movie about kidpoker or random hardcore porn @redtube, pornhub or xvideos... tough choice. at least if it was movie about some hot big boobed female poker pro it would make some sense even considering this option.

Wow.... I thought I may have missed the premiere of this blockbuster.... OOops I did! Anyway....that is guys for reminding me of this extravaganza.... I really much go an watch it now.... Oh hang on....I don't have Netflix...... Maybe it will be on the BBC in a few years time. Maybe I should wait till then....or maybe find it on the history channel at some time!
It is quite good to watch this movie. And whether there is a reference to him? In general it is interesting to know how to become such known and very perspective in the world of poker, so many years have passed, and Daniel Negreanu at a wheel of the strongest players and is famous for all.

I see none of you have actually watched it... turns out, it's a really good watch... there is precisely NO shameless plugging of pokerstars.. in fact I watched it and didn't even know they had made it. It offers some great insights into the mind of a poker player... and is touching, sad and heartwarming in equal measure at the times he is talking about his family.
Thoroughly enjoyable.... and not at all pointless.

Nope i havent. As i said not really interested watching a poker player's life. And Negreanu is one of the ones that i like the most in fact. But still... pointless to me. On the other hand watching a documentary about an animal, worth every second of it
