Daniel Negreanu

In the first hand, a player raised in early position and was called by Daniel Negreanu in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Negreanu checked to his opponent - who fired 7,500 into the middle. Negreanu then check-raised to 17,000 and his opponent quickly folded.

In the very next hand, the player on the button opened for 6,200 and just Negreanu called from the small blind.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} and Negreanu check-called a 6,000 c-bet from his opponent.

The turn brought the {8-Diamonds} and Negreanu opted to lead out for 13,600. His opponent called.

The {3-Clubs} completed the board and Negreanu fired 15,000 and change. His opponent snap-folded and Negreanu scooped again.

Negreanu has re-built his stack to 170,000 since returning from dinner.
