Reinkemeier Cracks Negreanu

Once again we only caught up with the turn card here, the board showing {5-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {3-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} and Daniel Negreanu checking. Tobias Reinkemeier was in position, and he made a bet of 7,500 into a pot of just more than that. Negreanu called, and the {J-Hearts} paired the board on the river. Reinkemeier doubled his bet to 15,000, and Negreanu was game.

"That card might have saved you money," he said. "I was gonna raise." With that, he dropped the calling chips into the pot, and Reinkemeier turned up his {K-Hearts} {J-Clubs} to Negreanu's surprise. "Oh," he said, "or it might have saved me money.

Negreanu was passing his {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades} in between his hands, but he never flashed them to the table. After he mucked them, he caved to the peer pressure and admitted that he'd been dealt the two aces. They were second-best by the river, though, and that hit knocks Negreanu down to about half his starting stack.
