Setback for Daniel

Omaha Hi-Lo:

"I didn't want to hit that queen," said Daniel Negreanu. He was at the river against a single opponent. The board was {4-Hearts} {K-Spades} {j-Diamonds} {q-Hearts} {7-Clubs}, with Negreanu betting the flop (he was called) and turn (he was raised). Negreanu called the turn raise, then check-folded to a bet on the river.

Negreanu flashed {Q-?} {Q-?} before folding. His opponent never opened his own four cards but later claimed to hold {9-?} {10-?} for a straight to the king.

Negreanu took the hit without much concern. He still has a very healthy 8,000 in chips.
