Daniel Negreanu appearing on Millionaire Matchmaker


Daniel Negreanu has accomplished just about everything one could hope for in the poker world. However, the 38-year-old divorcee has yet to conquer love, and he’ll appear on Bravo’s Millionaire Matchmaker to try and find his soulmate.

Negreanu’s episode is appropriately entitled “Trying to Play the Cards Right,” and it will kick off the sixth season of Millionaire Matchmaker. While it’s unclear what all is going to happen in this episode, we do know that show host Patti Stangler sends the poker pro to an astrologist. You can check out a clip of him meeting the astrologist here.

As Negreanu says in the clip, he’s had bad experiences with astrologers in the past. However, he seems to like what the one on Millionaire Matchmaker has to say about his prospects of finding love. Based on the women that KidPoker normally goes after and hangs out with, we can only assume that any future love would involve an Asian woman.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see Negreanu’s latest appearance in front of the camera. The Toronto native has been in the movies Lucky You, The Grand and X-Men Origins: Wolverine as well as the Katy Perry music video “Waking Up in Vegas.”

As for his poker career, KidPoker has won $16,340,578 in live tournaments, which ranks him sixth all-time. Some of his most notable victories include four WSOP gold bracelets, the 2004 WPT Five Diamond Poker Classic, and the 2004 WPT Borgata Poker Open. He is also one of the faces of PokerStars – the world’s largest online poker site – and has faced some excellent internet players such as Viktor “Isildur1” Blom and limit hold’em specialist “RUaBot.”
