It's still early in the series, but the WSOP Player of the Year race is always in the back of players' minds. Thanks to his WSOP APAC Main Event win, Daniel Negreanu begins the 2013 WSOP with an early lead. Amazingly, if he could maintain he would be the only player to win the award twice (he did it in 2004).
