2025 WSOP “Not Going to Be About Results” for Daniel Negreanu

Level 8 : Blinds 800/1,600, 2,400 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu will enter the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) "with a little bit of a different attitude" in his first year of Seniors Event eligibility, GGPoker's top ambassador told PokerNews.

The 50-year-old is coming off three straight losing summers. But that doesn't concern him, especially considering he ended an 11-year bracelet drought in 2024 when he took down the prestigious $50,000 Poker Players Championship. He's more focused on having fun and playing sound poker than the results.

"The World Series for me, it's not going to be about results that much, because that's luck, right," Negreanu explained. "Luck is going to play into the results. For me, I want to have a good time."

Paul Volpe was in the hijack with a raise of 15,000 in front of him before Dan Smith moved all in for 57,000 in middle position. Volpe called.

Smith drew one and Volpe stood pat. Smith had 7x5x3x2x, while Volpe showed 10x8x5x3x2x. "You're in trouble," Smith said as he slowly peeled his card, eventually turning over a 9x to make a 9-7 and earn the double up.

Owen Happy to Not Break His Ten

Level 8 : Blinds 800/1,600, 2,400 ante

Action folded to Andres Korn who raised to 5,000 in the small blind. Adam Owen then moved all in for 63,000 in the big blind and Korn snap-called.

Korn stood pat while Owen spent a few minutes pondering his decision before announcing he was pat as well. Korn showed Jx9x6x5x2x, but Owen had 10x9x8x5x4x to win the pot and double up.

Hellmuth Lays Down a Nine

Level 8 : Blinds 800/1,600, 2,400 ante

Phill Hellmuth recently hopped into the field and has gotten off to a rough start.

In a recent hand, Oscar Johansson opened to 3,500 from the hijack and was three-bet to 7,000 by Hellmuth, who was in the small blind. Johansson called.

Both players drew one and then Hellmuth bet 15,000. Johansson responded by sliding a stack of t-5,000 denomination chips into the middle, which was enough to put Hellmuth all in for his last 25,500 behind.

Hellmuth tossed his arm into the air and said, "I made a really good hand."

Hellmuth rechecked his hole cards and tanked a while before eventually folded a ninety-seven face up.
