Negreanu on the Brink

[user72279]

Daniel Negreanu has jumped to a large lead in the third match. The hand that earned him most of the chips Negreanu held pocket aces on a {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{k-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

board, and check-raised all in after Tran bet 15,000 on the flop with {k-Clubs}

{k-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

. Tran made the call, and the turn and river were no help to Tran.

Chip counts:

Daniel Negreanu - 150,000
JC Tran - 50,000
