You know what is sad? That I saw the title and KNEW it had to do with Daniel. I've read his blog for a while now and while I don't agree with the man politically, he is a phenomenal poker player.
Hell I can tell you for a fact that Negreanu made more from side bets with other players about how he would do in the WSoP tournaments than he did from actually playing in the tournaments (and he has already had a 22nd, 13th, 11th, 7th, and 1st place finish at this year's series alone worth over $500k).
I'm actually following the live updates from the $50k H.O.R.S.E. event right now, they are down to 3 people (Erick Lindgren, Scotty Nguyen, and Michael DeMichele). Arguably the best event at the WSoP this year.
edit: Doh, Lindgren just got knocked out, he has to settle for $781k...poor guy...=P
