Negreanu Gets Big Double Up

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

We came to the table with the flop showing {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}. Negreanu had put in a raise to 2700 after his opponent bet 700. His opponent counted out a big raise, and Negreanu shipped in his stack before the chips even hit the felt. His opponent called, and the hands were flipped up in what was the biggest pot of the table.

Negreanu: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Spades}{6-Spades}

Negreanu had the overpair but had to fade several outs. His opponent added even more outs when the {3-Spades} came on the turn. Needing to dodge a five, nine, or spade, the river came the {k-Hearts}, and Negreanu survived the all in to double to about 30,000, leaving is opponent with around 10,000.
