Renowned Canadian poker player Daniel Negreanu has partnered with GGPoker, the world’s largest online poker site, in a bid to assemble a team of Canadian players to compete in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event in Las Vegas.

The last time a Canadian won the WSOP Main Event was Jonathon Duhamel back in 2010.

Hundreds of Canadians have already qualified via GGPoker's "Road to Vegas," and there's still time to join Team Canada and Daniel Negreanu in Las Vegas for the WSOP until June 15.
