Daniel Negreanu has accomplished a lot of things in his poker career with titles won all over the world, record amounts of dollars lost playing televised cash games but now the PokerStars pro has turned his attention to making SuperNova at PokerStars. If there were such a thing as PokerStars rakeback making SuperNova would be a huge amount of rakeback but using rakeback Poker Stars system Negreanu would have earned 100,000 VPPs which comes with its own bonuses.
Negreanu used his own blog to talk about this plans for 2011 and one that feature very high up was his desire to keep up with the new young online poker pros who are changing the way people play the game. Negreanu is well aware that online poker has turned the game incredibly mathematical and his own skills at reading players when accompanied by this mathematical thinking could see him improve dramatically.
“The best No Limit Hold’em players in the world today are mostly young. It’s just a fact and if you look at tournament results over the past few years, it’s trending younger and younger. Why? The younger players are using more advanced tools to break down the game, discussing hands with friends and on forums, and most importantly are putting in more volume than the older generation.”
Negreanu wants to improve on his 55,000 VPPs of 2010 and is well on course to do so having already gained 16,500 VPPs since the start of the year:
“One of my goals this year is to accumulate over 55,000 VPPs on PokerStars. I got 55,000 last year, my highest total ever, and I plan on getting to 60,000 this year, and possibly even reaching SuperNova status” said Negreanu. “One of the best ways to do it, I found, was to play the $5,600 buy-in heads-up No Limit Hold’em Turbo sit and gos.”
