With around two weeks until the start of the 2021 World Series of Poker, Daniel Negreanu is picking the right time to get on a roll. The Poker Masters — the latest stop on the PokerGo Tour — is running throughout November.
Negreanu started out his hot streak by finishing in third place during Event #2, the $10,000 No-Limit Hold’em for a $103,200 score. He then followed that showing up a few days later by winning Event #5, the $10,000 No Limit Hold’em to add another $178,200 to his win total.

With the win, Negreanu, who has accumulated $43,579,904 in live tournament winnings — good enough for third all-time — earned his second major live victory this year.
In June, Negreanu took down the $50,000 No Limit Hold’em event during the Poker Go Cup for a first-place prize of $700,000. It was that victory that ended an eight-year drought without a major live tournament win.

2021 Poker Masters leaderboard
Given Negreanu’s two big scores during the 2021 Poker Masters, he was unsurprisingly ahead in the 2021 Poker Masters Leaderboard after five events, which is used to determine the winner of the coveted Purple Jacket. Previous winners include Steffen Sontheimer (2017), Ali Imsirovic (2018), Sam Soverel (2019), Alandros Kolonias (2020 Online), Eelis Parssinen (2020 PLO Online).
Negreanu had a relatively small lead after the win, so its no surprised that he was ultimately overtaken in the Poker Masters Purple Jacket standings, which was taken home by Michael Addamo, who won the last two events.
