Why Hiring Daniel Negreanu was GGPoker's Smartest Move to Date

In 2019, GGPoker hired Poker Hall of Famer Daniel Negreanu as the face of its brand, and the poker site has done nothing but consistently grow ever since. That isn't a coincidence.

The six-time World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner became a free-agent after he left PokerStars in May 2019. He'd spent 12 years representing the poker site that had dominated the industry for nearly two decades.

The Canadian-American wore no patch to the WSOP that summer and it was an odd sight for those who attributed the poker legend with the PokerStars logo for so many years.
