Daniel Negreanu has once again cashed had a 7 figure payday on the felt after winning the 2022 Super High Roller Bowl (SHRB). The GGPoker ambassador outclassed a field of 24 entries in the $300,000 buy-in tournament to walk away with $3.3 million, the second-largest cash of his career.
Negreanu Ends Two-Year Cold Streak
The past two years have not gone very well for the Poker Hall of Famer. No major victories, no seven-figure scores, no bracelets. While he has had some deep runs, he has also suffered huge losses along the way. He wrapped up his 2022 World Series of Poker (WSOP) journey with a massive $1.1 million loss and was eliminated in 7th place right on the bubble in the recent Poker Masters Event #10: $50K No-Limit Hold’em.
Negreanu finally redeemed himself after his huge win at the SHRB. He entered the final table ahead in chips and never looked back.
Negreanu Dominates Petrangelo Heads-Up
In the final hand, the Canadian poker superstar moved all-in with queen-seven while his heads-up opponent, Nick Petrangelo, called off his remaining stack holding king-five.
Negreanu’s cards improved to a pair and flush draw on the flop. The turn and the river did not change anything which spelled the end for Petrangelo who finished runner-up for $2 million.
The other two players who made it to the final table were Justin Bonomo who finished 4th for $720,000, and Andrew Lichtenberger who earned $1,152,000 for his 3rd-place finish.
