Negreanu Eliminated by Rast

Level 6 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Daniel Negreanu (from Event #1)
Daniel Negreanu (from Event #1)

From the cutoff, Daniel Negreanu opened to 6,500 and both Rainer Kempe and Brandon Adams called from the button and small blind.

Brian Rast was in the big blind, and he three-bet to 25,000 before Negreanu quickly announced he was all in for 103,500. Kempe and Adams folded, and Rast deliberated and was forced to use a time extension chip before he called.

Negreanu: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Rast: {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}

The dealer spread a {J-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds} board, and Negreanu was eliminated just shy of the break.
