Level 11
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
The player on the button raised to 2,200 to open the pot, and both blinds called. Daniel Negreanu was the small, and he checked the 
flop. The big blind led out into the pot with a bet of 5,000, and the initial raiser folded out of the way. Negreanu, though, check-raised to 16,100, the amount that the big blind had left.
"I'm short. I don't think I can fold," the player lamented, sticking his final few chips into the pot. His hunch was correct as his 
was second-best to Negreanu's 
. The turn 
and river 
didn't change anything, and Negreanu has tallied the knockout to move up over 50,000.
