Daniel Negreanu the First to Bust

Negreanu out early

Ian Frazer, Daniel Negreanu and Phil Laak all saw a flop of {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

. Frazer held {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

, Negreanu held {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

and Laak held {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

.

"Bye, bye, Daniel," said Phil Hellmuth when he saw the cards and flop from the commentating booth.

Frazer checked and Negreanu bet 25,000. Laak raised to 69,000 and Frazer folded. Negreanu thought for a while, trying to pick up a read on Laak. Eventually, he moved all in for 260,000 and Laak snapped him off.

The turn and river were the {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

and

{K-Clubs}

respectively and that was all she wrote for Negreanu. It'll be hard for him to come back from a zero in the first heat after running into a tough spot.
