My input.

I emailed pokerstars to see if they could get Danial Negraneau to play at fulltilt and move Howard Ledder and Patty Duke to pokerstars. Pokerstars is trying to appeal to the family people. While fulltilt will be trying to go to the life in the fast lane kids. Danial if he brings the people over will be in the same position he has at fulltilt.

Actually he played seldom at Pokerstars even before these changes.
I think that nowadays he's got different things to do besides playing poker, which i think is a step in the right direction for him.

He says via twitter he will be voting in the upcoming U.S. election. That would require U.S. citizenship, maybe that is the reason he is not playing on PokerStars?

Dnegs is already a U.S Citizen. I think his dual citizenship with canada, ay ?

No, his bank didn't freeze his accounts. He said on twitch that one of his credit card accounts got frozen and he said "oh well, their loss, I'm rich!!" and shrugged it off. It was due to an inactivity on the card or something. I guess that's what happens when you're worth 30m+

He never really played on PS much anyway, he lives in Vegas, he's getting heavily into politics, he's also tied up with getting the NHL to Vegas and setting that all up. Dude still loves and plays his poker as his instagram showed him playing a 500k cash game at Aria 2 days ago.

However even Negreanu would admit he is out of his league online. His play is based so hugely on reads that he is at a disadvantage online. His old streams were good for knowledge though it's a shame they're gone.

If he's not a supporter of PokerStars new VPP scheme I doubt you'll see him play there much at all, he barely did back when it was good!

However PokerStars will not remove him as a sponsor/partner/affiliate or whatever you want to call him, because that's simply bad business.

maybe if PS host a $100,000 buy in tournament, he might show up and yes he's such an important figure for PS so that's why they will not remove him as they will lose money :D

I believe if is still a PS pro. But he doesn't play all that much online. He so busy doing so much other stuff. Plus, he is really unhappy with the recent changes at PS and with their VIP system. I would love to see him leave PS and sign with 888, but I don't think that's very likely.

Daniel is not on team online. His US residency and immigration status, along with controversy are keeping him away. He wants to stay under the radar and collect his PS money quietly. PS is becoming very political now.
