Negreanu Targets the High Rollers
Negreanu praised the WSOP team and specifically WSOP Vice President Jack Effel for their ability to solve the "puzzle" that is the WSOP schedule.
"It's a daunting task, but I think they nailed it," Negreanu told PokerNews. "The WSOP schedule has something for everyone from low rollers to high rollers, big bet players and mixed game lovers!
"Plenty of fun events sprinkled in there and even something for the online grinders."

Last week Negreanu gave his Twitter followers a first look at the WSOP schedule he was planning to play.
"As usual, I'm going to put in a lot of volume, focusing mainly on the high buy in events and kicking it off with a new tournament, a $100,000 Bounty event! The one I look most forward to every year is the $50K Poker Players Championship.
Negreanu's Million Dollar Summer?
Breaking down Negreanu's schedule, he plans to play in 49 of the 88 bracelet events, mostly consisting of mixed game and High Roller events. This means it looks like Kid Poker won't be making an appearance in the $5,000,000 GTD opening event 'The Homecoming', nor will he be jumping into the Colossus, Millionaire Maker or Monster Stack.
Another notable event not on Negreanu's schedule is the Million Dollar Bounty, which comes with a top bounty of $1,000,000.
If you total up all buy-ins of the 49 events on Negreanu's schedule, it comes to over $930,000 — and that's before re-entry events are taken into account!
