Thus, the participation of the eight-time WSOP champion was announced by HCL itself on social media. In the post, the organization highlighted the arrival of the GGPoker ambassador to the program. The rest of the table, however, has not yet been disclosed.
Additionally, the game will have a minimum buy-in of US$ 50,000. Thus, Negreanu will return to the spotlight of televised cash games after a long period more focused on tournaments. The player became one of the most well-known names in poker precisely because of his appearances at big cash tables.
In this way, Negreanu’s arrival may also create an interesting confrontation with Nik Airball. The HCL regular has already provoked tournament players in the past. Now, he may have the opportunity to test his skills against one of the greatest winners in poker history.

Negreanu stays focused on tournaments after returning to cash games
However, despite the debut on HCL, Negreanu remains focused on the tournament circuit. Currently, the Canadian mainly participates in WSOP and PGT competitions, with few appearances in major cash games.
Nevertheless, the player already has plans for September. Negreanu intends to stream the final 10 days of the WSOP Online 2026 on GGPoker, a series that awards 33 bracelets and features US$ 25 million guaranteed in the Main Event. Brazilians such as Raphael Caixeta and Lucas Teixeira have already won bracelets in the series.
Finally, the Canadian has already revealed which tournament he intends to play first in his streams. It is the US$ 10,000 PLO event, a format he knows well. About the competition, Negreanu summarized on social media: “PLO is my favorite”.
