Rob Hollink fired out a bet on fourth street showing {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{3-Spades}

and Daniel Negreanu made the call with {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

.

On fifth street Negreanu paired up with the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

and fired out a bet which Hollink called with the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

.

On sixth street Negreanu bet out again with the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

and Hollink raised after catching the {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

. Negreanu then threee-bet and Hollink went into the tank. After spending several minutes in deep thought he eventually laid down his hand asking, "Are you rolled-up?" and sure enough, Negreanu flashed {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

for rolled-up nines which had made a full house on fifth street.

A few minutes later Negreanu amazingly found himself with another rolled-up hand, this time with tens. He then spiked a fourth ten to give him quads as his opponent got away from the action.

With a nice run of cards Negreanu now finds himself with the tournament chip leaders with about 50,000 in chips.
