Daniel Negreanu 2026 WSOP Schedule

Daniel Negreanu won't play in all 100 bracelet events listed on the newly released 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) schedule. But there are only a few poker players out there who will enter more tournaments this summer than the GGPoker ambassador.

The seven-time bracelet winner will have plenty of opportunities — 40 to be exact — at the WSOP in Las Vegas to win his eighth bracelet. Negreanu revealed his tentative 2026 WSOP schedule, which includes a wide-range of poker variants and buy-ins.

Bracelet-chasing action starts May 26 inside the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, home to the World Series of Poker since 2022. For the second straight year, the schedule includes 100 gold bracelet events, and Negreanu plans to play 40% of them.

Negreanu, who said he will offer a staking package to his fans via PokerStake, shared a list on X with all the events he plans to play this summer. His schedule includes 17 no-limit hold'em tournaments, 15 mixed events, and eight pot-limit Omaha events. He'll start his summer off by entering Event #5: $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha (8-Handed).

The Poker Hall of Famer isn't changing his schedule up much this year compared to recent years. He plans to enter most of the largest buy-in events such as the $250,000 Super High Roller, but also some low-stakes tournaments, including the $300 Gladiators No-Limit Hold'em, an event he took 73rd out of 23,088 entrants in 2023.

Some other key events Negreanu is slated to enter includes the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship (June 18), $25,000 High Roller PLO/NLH Mixed (June 23), and $100,000 High Roller Pot-Limit Omaha (June 30). He won't be making the 30-minute drive from his Lake Las Vegas home to the Las Vegas Strip early very often this summer, as he intends to enter events that start at noon or later 85% of the time.

Negreanu, who won his seventh bracelet in 2024 after an 11-year drought, has produced mixed results at the WSOP the past four years. He finished the 2025 WSOP up with a $181,000 profile, his first winning WSOP since 2021. The top ambassador for GGPoker is one of just a few WSOP grinders who publicly release full series profits and losses.

Negreanu is one of just two two-time WSOP Player of the Year winners. Shaun Deeb joined that exclusive club last summer when he took down the award, beating out Main Event and Poker Players Championship winner Michael Mizrachi, and Benny Glaser, who won three bracelets.

This year's Player of the Year race will likely have some of the familiar faces battling for the award, including Deeb and Negreanu.
