Negreanu Picks Up Some Chips

No-Limit Hold'em

Defending champion Brian Rast raised to 4,500 from the cutoff and Daniel Negreanu called on the button. Both Phil Ivey and Daniel Alaei gave up their blinds, and we got to see a {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop.

Rast put out a 8,500 chip continuation-bet, and Negreanu called. The turn was the {Q-Hearts} and Rast checked right away. Negreanu threw out two 5,000 chips and announced "9,000." Rast folded and Negreanu raked in a much needed pot.
