Negreanu No More

A player raised under the gun to 1,100, the cutoff called, and Daniel Negreanu -- back from his other event -- called from the button. Then the small blind then reraised the bunch to 5,500. The first two players folded, but Negreanu made the call, saying "Wheeee!" as he did.

The flop came {6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. The small blind bet 7,250, Negreanu quickly pushed all in for about 20,000, and the small blind instantly called, turning over {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. "I have a full boat..." joked Negreanu as he turned over {K-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. "On the turn," he clarified.

He didn't have his full house on the turn, as it was the {8-Hearts}. Nor on the river, which was the {J-Clubs}. Negreanu is out, and on his way to play poker elsewhere in the Rio.
