Negreanu Still Battling

Daniel Negreanu was among the Day 1 chip leaders. His Day 2 didn't fare as well, ending with fewer chips than he had at the start of play. Things have been going a bit better today, but not much.

Negreanu raised an opponent from 5,500 to 13,000 on a flop of {J-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {5-Clubs}. His opponent called. Both men checked the {7-Spades} turn and Negreanu's opponent checked again when the river fell {7-Clubs}, pairing the board and putting three to a flush out. Negreanu opted on a bet of 12,000, but it went uncalled.

After raking in that pot, Negreanu's count increased to 83,000.
