{Q-Clubs}

{3-Diamonds}

{4-Spades}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Spades}

{8-Diamonds}

"Dario, I only bluffed you once," said Kid Poker after the match. Though he sounded serious, many in the crowd got a good laugh out of Daniel's remark.

Negreanu will play the winner of the Scotty Nguyen v. Ted Forrest match-up in the Round of 16.
