Negreanu Moves From PLO to Hold-Em
Cards were on their backs and Daniel Negreanu had his camera out, sweating both his opponents' cards and how they affected his outs.
Daniel Negreanu: K♠Q♠Q♦2♦
Will Berry: A♣9♦6♦8♣
Nicolas Gola: K♥Q♥2♦2♣
Gola was the only one with a hefty stack and put both his opponents at risk. The flop ran out K♦6♣J♥ putting Gola and Negreanu ahead with the same made hand. The A♥ on the turn was a dagger to both of them as Berry now took the lead. An inconsequential 7♠ fell on the river.
Berry found a triple up and Negreanu was left chopping a measly pot with Gola; this left Negreanu with only 16,000 chips. He did fold a few hands before getting it in three ways shortly after but to no avail.
Negreanu was in a hurry to get his pay out, as he intends on registering the $10,000 Limit Hold'em event that's going on today. This is a variant he has years of experience in and, as always, we'll have to keep an eye on him to catch his next deep run.
