Daniel Negreanu is in the hunt for his eighth WSOP bracelet after making Day 2 of the $25M guaranteed WSOP Online Main Event late on Saturday night.
Negreanu is in Vancouver where he can play GGPoker and is streaming all of his action on his YouTube channel.
He made a stab at Day 1N of the Main Event on Friday night but was eliminated before the money when he shoved 
into a suspected squeeze play. His opponent slow-rolled (or was looking the other way) and eventually called with 
. To rub salt in the wound, Negreanu hit a miracle nine on the 
board before his opponent completed his flush on the river.
Saturday night's alright
Negreanu started Saturday night's stream (which you can watch at the top of this article) in the $10K Heads-Up Championship, where he was eliminated in the second round. He also played Day 1O of the Main Event and made the money with a stack of 583,012, good for 42 big blinds when play resumes on Monday evening.
Negreanu will stream his Day 2 when the tournament will play down to the final table, before crowning a champion on Tuesday.
There are currently 456 players qualified for Day 2 with two Day 1 flights left, one this evening at 6.30pm UTC and the last chance flight on Monday at 1.30pm UTC.
GGPoker is currently $2,736,750 short of the $25,000,000 guarantee, and there's a huge $3,518,199 up top. All nine players who make the final table will be guaranteed $439,800 and everyone who starts Day 2 is guaranteed a min-cash of $11,738.
Negreanu is in good company. Other notables who have bagged for Day 2 include WSOP Main Event third-place finisher Niklas Astedt (32BBs) and the man who created all the controversy after Astedt was eliminated, Dominik Nitsche (84BBs). Sergio Aido, Mikita Badziakouski, and Anatoly Filatov also found bags for Day 2.
Negreanu is looking for his eighth WSOP bracelet after winning his seventh – and his first in over a decade – in the $50K Poker Players Championship at this summer's WSOP.
You can watch it all play out on Daniel Negreanu's YouTube channel on Monday at 6pm UTC.
