Level 1 : 50/75, 0 ante

From middle position, a player raised to 250 total. Daniel Negreanu made it 675 from the button only to be four-bet to 1,725 by his opponent. Negreanu wouldn't be that easily pushed off his hand though, as he made it 3,325 to go, which his opponent called.

Strangely enough, the two checked the entire board down as it ran out {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{K-Spades}

Negreanu's opponent flipped up {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for a pair of jacks, but was defeated by the two pair Negreanu made on the turn and river as he tabled {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Negreanu is now up to about 20,300.
