Negreanu Surrenders to Hallay's Shove
Level 14
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 275,000 from the small blind and Axel Hallay called on the button as they went heads-up to the 2♥9♣Q♦ flop.
Negreanu bet 200,000 and Hallay once again called to see the 8♣ turn. Negreanu slowed down and checked, then called when Hallay bet 175,000.
The river came the K♥ and Negreanu checked again. Hallay, his hand resting on his face and his silk scarf partially covering his mouth, then announced he was all in.
Negreanu, with around 900,000 remaining, picked up his cards and took one last peek at them before throwing them in the muck.
"Not the river I was hoping for. Or maybe it saved me," Negreanu said following the hand.
