The Nine High

Daniel Negreanu has never truly got going today, but his latest double through could be the one to see him hit that next gear.

All in on a {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{K-Clubs} flop, Negreanu announced "Nine high" as he showed {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

"Ah, the 'nine high'," added another player.

I believe JC Tran was the man holding top pair, his {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} ahead, but vulnerable against Kid Poker's opened-ended straight flush draw.

With the turn coming the {8-Clubs} to improve his hand to two pair, Negreanu had more outs than a tennis match, one of which duly arrived on the {2-Hearts} river to double him through.

A quick glance down at his chips reveals that Negreanu now has something around the 85,000 mark.
