Poker pro Daniel Negreanu and his revelations on Twitter are not unheard of. The six-time World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner always shares new updates about his game, life and more on his social media handles, his followers are all the more intrigued to know about the same. This time around ‘KidPoker’ has shared his biggest regret in life, and mind you it’s not related to poker.
Negreanu recently shared a post on Twitter in which he described an episode from his teenage years. He further shared that he is still ashamed of the incident. DNegs said that he is ashamed of calling his mother a ‘fat pig’ when he saw his mother eating after having an argument with her as a teenager. The Super High Roller Bowl VII champ saw his mother crying after the incident and DNegs stated how it has been 30 years since that incident and it still continues to haunt him. The pro who stands third in the All Time Money List, further accepted that it was the meanest thing he has ever done and regrets it terribly.
Negreanu’s tweet read, “My biggest regret in life happened as a teenager when I called my mother a fat pig while she was eating after an argument we had. I saw her cry and it still haunts me to this day 30 years later. Meanest thing I’ve ever done and am still ashamed by it.” (sic.)

As a mother, I know it hurt her, but I also know she was aware of your age and what comes with it. She forgave and ADORED you. It was obvious! You’re blessed she got to enjoy your success!💙 pic.twitter.com/DyuACRXi2a

1) Context- to encourage sharing the teacher had a sign-out sheet for popular games/toys etc. You weren't allowed multiple time slots in a row so everyone gets a turn.
One day I go to Connect 4 and she has written her name in all even slots and her friend's name in all odd slots
