Thorpe Cracks Negreanu's Aces

Level 3 : 300/600, 0 ante

We just caught an action packed hand between Daniel Negreanu and Mike Thorpe.

After the flop came {j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Negreanu bet, Thorpe raised, Negreanu three-bet and Thorpe called.

The turn was the {q-Diamonds} and Negreanu bet out again only to be raised by Thorpe once more. Negreanu opted to call and they saw the {3-Hearts} hit on the river.

Negreanu checked over to Thorpe who threw in a bet. Negreanu called and Thorpe flipped over his {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} for a flopped set of jacks. Negreanu showed his {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} with a frown on his face as Thorpe raked in a sizable pot.
