Negreanu Sags His Head

Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu raised to 800 from early position. Two players behind him in middle position called. Three players took a flop of {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}. Negreanu was first to act and checked. The next player bet 1,600 and was called by the other middle position player and also by Negreanu.

On the turn, the {J-Clubs}, Negreanu decided to lead out for 2,600 and only the player that bet the flop called.

Play was heads up going to the river and the {K-Diamonds} fell. Negreanu led out again for 3,500 this time and his opponent instantly moved all in. After some thought, Negreanu mucked his hand as he looked down at his dwindling stack of 8,300 chips.
