Negreanu Slow Plays the Nuts

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 3,000 ante

There was a little over 35,000 in the pot preflop and the dealer fanned a flop of {k-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}. Daniel Negreanu checked and Isaac Haxton bet 8,000. Negreanu called and the turn was the {7-Hearts}.

Both players checked and the {8-Spades} on the river put four spades on the board. Both players checked again and Negreanu showed {a-Spades}{7-Spades}. He let out a big sigh as he was waiting for Haxton to make a move but it never came.
