Renowned Canadian poker player Daniel Negreanu has partnered with GGPoker, the world’s largest online poker site, in a bid to assemble a team of Canadian players to compete in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event in Las Vegas.
“Canadians are some of the best poker players in the world,” says Daniel Negreanu ” It's about time Canada brings home the main event bracelet again and with GGPoker’s help, I am sure we can!”
The last time a Canadian won the WSOP Main Event was Jonathon Duhamel back in 2010.
Hundreds of Canadians have already secured their spots through GGPoker's "Road to Vegas," and there’s still time to join Team Canada and Daniel Negreanu live in Las Vegas for the WSOP until June 15.
