Negreanu successfully rebounded and became the focus of attention on the 22nd.<\/h2>

The 22nd day of the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) continues in Horseshoe, Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas.<\/span><\/p>

Although three new gold bracelet winners were announced that day, the most talked-about story came from Daniel Negreanu.<\/span><\/p>

In Event #47:$25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller<\/strong>In the first round, Negreanu was eliminated right at the start, even being knocked out on his very first hand. However, the seven-time WSOP bracelet winner did not give up. He chose to re-enter the game and successfully made a comeback, advancing to Day 2 as a top-ten finisher in the chipset.<\/span><\/p>
