Negreanu Challenge Ahead

Daniel Negreanu, having held a 2:1 plus chip lead for over a level, has finally busted Carlos Mortensen, who was moving his stack around with good timing, picking up the occasional raise and finding Negreanu unwilling to call his all-ins, until {A-Hearts} {9-Clubs} preflop which pretty much instantly called Mortensen. He chuckled and may have had a minor swear when he saw this hand - he could only table a dominated {9-Hearts} {6-Hearts} and watched the board give Negreanu a straight: {J-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {10-Spades} {Q-Spades}. Handshakes and no hard feelings, even a, "Good luck in the next match," from the vanquished Mortensen.

Also from the side room:

Juha Helppi beat Rick Salomon.
Touko Takala beat Praz Bansi.
