Six months ago, Daniel Negreanu was sitting in sixth spot on the all-time money list. However, a string of impressive performances has netted Negreanu over $2 million dollars since that time, and he was been able to vault some of the world's best players.

Let's take a look at some of Negreanu's biggest cashes since the start of 2013:

€25,000 WSOPE High Roller, 1st, $979,950
€10,000 EPT Barcelona High Roller, 2nd, $352,880
$25,000 WPT World Championship, 7th, $137,085
WSOP APAC Main Event, 1st, $1,087,160

In addition, Negreanu has also posted a number of five figure scores since the start of 2013.

"Kid Poker" warned the world about a year ago that he was playing some of the best poker of his career, and he was certainly followed through.

Negreanu currently sits about $300k behind Trickett for second place on the all-time money list, and about $6 million behind Antonio Esfandiari.
