Faraz Jaka raised to 1,500 on the button and Perry Horwich folded his small blind. Daniel Negreanu went all in for 8,675 from the big blind and Jaka smirked.

Negreanu had a good feel for where was in this hand. "You've got nothing here," he laughed. Jaka confirmed Daniel's assessment and still called, tabling {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{6-Spades}

to Negreanu's {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

.

"You always have a jack," said Negreanu. After the flop, Daniel wished he didn't. Jaka nailed the flop as it came {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{2-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

. The

{J-Diamonds}

turn card and sealed Negreanu's fate and the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

river was merely a formality.

Jaka is now heads up with Horwich and appears to have a slight lead.
