Play Resmues With a Few Extra
Freddy Deeb, Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, and Erick Lindgren are all joining our field following the break. Also occupying an empty seat is a Post-it note with the name "Daniel Negreanu" written on it. Negreanu is four-handed for a bracelet right now in Event #14, taking place on the ESPN featured table. It appears he'll be joining us as soon as he gets finished up over there.
Distractions
The tournament can wait.
Last Man In?
Up a Little
Luske Turning It Around
Action All the Way But No Result
Multi-Tabling
We pick up his action in a heads-up pot on the river with the board reading . His lone opponent checked, then called a bet when Negreanu fired. Kid Poker turned over having flopped threes full.
Across the felt, table mate Mike Matusow yelled, "Daniel don't waste time flopping sets and boats!" Negreanu is up to 35,000 now, enough chips to let himself get blinded down while he tends to more important business.
Bill Gazes as His Chips Go the Other Way
The small blind showed and it was good enough to scoop the lot. Gazes down to 26,000.
