Negreanu is King
Daniel Negreanu raised to 40,000 under the gun and Gus Hasen looked him up from the button. When the flop fell , Negreanu bet 62,000, Hansen grabbed a stack of chips and raised to around 450,000, and Negreanu moved all in for 457,000. Hansen made the call and the cards were turned up:
Showdown
Negreanu | |
Hansen |
Hansen had flopped top pair, but it was no good against Negreanu's pocket pair of kings. "Kid Poker" also held the king of clubs, meaning he topped Hansen's flush draw. The turn was nothing special, and neither was the river. Negreanu's kings held to give him a big double while Hansen took yet another hit.
