Negreanu selling action for the WSOPE
We recap some stories you may have missed including a new poker documentary and an oopsie from Lex.
Negreanu selling WSOPE action
One of the big stories of 2019 was Daniel Negreanu selling his WSOP action to his fans for the first time. He did it at no markup, there were some hiccups along the way but he had a very profitable summer for his backers.
Negreanu is in 3rd position in the WSOP Player of the Year race just behind Robert Campbell and Shaun Deeb. All that remains is the WSOPE, so to spur him on KidPoker is selling his action again, and those who missed out last time get it at no markup.
He also announced the return of his WSOP Vlogs for the festival:
I will be offering no markup pieces to those that got shutout at WSOP earlier this year. Details on all that will be available shortly.
I’ll also be resuming the VLOGS for the duration of the series.

Lex does an oopsie
We have all been there. Everyone who has played a Mixed Game tournament before has made the inevitable error of playing a Razz hand like a Seven Card Stud hand. It's just that not all of us have done it on Twitch in front of thousands of fans:
