K.L “highhands98” Cleeton steals Daniel Negreanu the show at the WSOP Main Event

In the last days you might have from K.L., a 27-year-old poker player, who was born with spinal muscular atrophy, a rare neuromuscular disorder leaving him paralyzed from the neck down.

Sensationally K.L. not only made it into Day 4 of the WSOP Main Event, but also into the money and therefore much further than Daniel Negreanu himself.

Cleeton completely stole Daniel the show at the WSOP Main Event:

In addition to that, he has inspired thousands of people with his positive attitude towards life and his poker skills and already grew a big fan base on Youtube:

By the way K.L. is also streaming on Twitch Poker under the name “highhands89”.
