On a flop of {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}, Daniel Negreanu checked from the small blind and the player in the big blind bet 5,000. The under the gun player called and Negreanu pushed all in for a total of 9,800. Both the big blind and the under the gun player made the call.

Since their was still action between the other players, the cards weren't revealed as the {K-Hearts} hit the turn. The big blind checked and the under the gun player bet 20,000. The big blind mucked.

Negreanu: {J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
UTG: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Negreanu had flopped two pair but his opponent had turned a straight. In order to triple up, Negreanu needed to catch a jack or eight on the river. Unfortunately for him, the river was the {6-Hearts} and he was eliminated from the tournament.
