Ivey is smooth in real life and supposedly tells some of the funniest stories but he clams up a lot in public especially at the tables.

Daniel Negreanu is probably the most popular poker player on the planet who is not named Dan Bilzerian. Love him or hate him, Negreanu has an uncanny ability to relate to the masses. That's what makes him an ideal instructor because he's used to be in front of the cameras and has no problem articulating what's rattling inside that little head of his.
Daniel Negreanu: Teaches Poker is the actual name of his class. Negreanu's class includes 38 lessons. The average less is approximately 10 to 13 minutes but there's one that's nearly a half hour long.
