Daniel Negreanu Eliminated in 3rd Place ($519,764)

Level 32
: 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

In a limped pot that checked through on the flop, Phil Hellmuth bet 700,000 on the
turn and Daniel Negreanu raised all-in for 2,850,000. Hellmuth tanked for two minutes and called.
Phil Hellmuth:
Daniel Negreanu:
Hellmuth had a straight while Negreanu held two pair. Negreanu needed to fill up on the river but didn't do so as the peeled off, and Negreanu hit the rail after more than three hours of three-handed play.
Many poker fans were rooting for a heads-up match between Negreanu and Hellmuth, but it will not happen as Hellmuth and Jeremy Ausmus are the last two players standing.
