Negreanu Rivers a Bigger Full House

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

It was a blind vs blind hand with Benjamin Pollak sitting in the small blind against Daniel Negreanu in the big. The board read {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Pollak led out for 49,000 into a pot of around 100,000. Negreanu stuck in a stack of T25,000 chips and Pollak was put to the test for his remaining 80,000 or so chips.

He thought for a minute as he got out of his chair, unsure of what he was going to do. After a minute or so, Pollak made the call and Negreanu tabled {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades} for a full house. Pollak flashed the {2-Diamonds} as he made a full house as well, just of the smaller version.
