Daniel Negreanu was looking to go wire-to-wire as the final table chip leader of Event #9: $26,000 NLH, but poker's biggest star had to settle for a runner-up finish in the penultimate event of the 2026 Poker Masters.
The Poker Hall of Famer fell to a new kid on the block as young American pro Nicholas Seward claimed his first PokerGO Tour (PGT) victory for $412,500.
"It feels great," Seward told PokerNews in a winner's interview. "The $25K is a big one, so it was definitely a very rewarding feeling, and it was my first win in here, so it feels really good."
In his third final table appearance of the series, Seward bested a stacked final seven that included high-stakes pals Jesse Lonis and Matthew Wantman and poker villain Sean Perry.
