In celebration of Daniel Negreanu’s 44th birthday, we’ve put together a list of the top 10 things we loved about his 2018 World Series of Poker vlog.

For 46 straight days, we were treated to entertaining videos giving us an inside look into the life and experiences of Kid Poker at the biggest poker event of the year. This list is our thank you to Daniel, for taking us along for the ride.

Attending the 2018 Women in Poker Hall of Fame ceremony was an honor and a privilege. Beyond the event’s beauty and pageantry, however, was an underlying message that the poker industry needs to take to heart.

It’s time for us all to stop lamenting that there aren’t more women in our game, and to step up and start doing something practical about it. Let’s start putting the time, effort, and resources into making “wishful thinking” a reality to create a second, sustained poker boom.

Ever since Daniel Negreanu announced that he’s got a new MasterClass, the poker world has been buzzing. Some dissenters feel that a top poker player giving away strategy is a net negative, but on the other hand that seems far outweighed by the positive mainstream exposure for the game on the whole.

In this article we examine five reasons why Daniel Negreanu’s MasterClass is good for poker.

Since its founding back in 2008, the Women in Poker Hall of Fame (WiPHoF) has inducted a new class every two years. With a large backlog of deserving women starting to form, James Guill opines that it’s time to move to an annual induction ceremony.

Evoking the spirit of Isaac Newton’s third law, there will certainly be consequences to WSOP.com offering $15 million in guaranteed online poker events on their all-new regulated tri-state network.

Without a doubt – and certainly “good for poker” – is that the consequences will be positive ones. Here’s what’s likely to happen in the wake of WSOP.com’s $15 Million Summer.

Cryptocurrency is all the rage nowadays, with more people looking into its utility as an alternative to fiat currency. The poker community in particular seems to have a vested interest in the success of cryptocurrency, which begs the question of whether we’ll eventually see it being accepted in mainstream large-scale tournament series, such as the World Series of Poker.

Before we get ahead of ourselves, however, it’s worth examining the pros and cons of what beginning to accept cryptocurrencies might entail for the WSOP.
