A native of Toronto, Daniel Negreanu recognized early on in his life he had a knack for gambling and, more specifically, poker. So confident was he that at the age of 21 Daniel dropped out of college - just one credit shy of graduation - and moved to Las Vegas to pursue poker full-time.

With two first place finishes at the 1997 World Poker Finals at Foxwoods, Daniel took the world of tournament poker by storm and never looked back. He has since added three World Series of Poker bracelets, two World Poker Tour titles, and more than thirty victories in tournaments across the globe.

Jamie Gold, a professional poker player who hails from Malibu, California, is one of the biggest stars in the world of poker. His winnings after his WSOP championship - in which he took the pot in the 2006 tournament - totaled over twelve million, bringing him national acclaim as the biggest winner in poker history. He is famous for his cool attitude toward betting loads of money, with this aggressive playing style being counteracted by a calm countenance. While most players play the game with a constant face of steel, Jamie Gold is alive and active, calm and composed during the entirety of the game.
