Negreanu Sinks to Lowest Yet; Recovers Slightly
Negreanu checked the turn and this time Shulman bet. And promptly, Negreanu announced all in.
Instafold.
Negreanu back up to the heady heights of 2.045 million.
Bigger Loss Sends Negreanu Into Danger Zone
The river was the and again, check to Shulman, who bet 300k... a slight pause, but another call, although Negreanu mucked when he saw Shulman's winning for rivered trips. I wonder what Negreanu had - we couldn't see if he flashed his hand while mucking.
Break Time
Back soon.
Breaktime Chip Counts
Actual, real chip counts:
Negreanu: 2.015 million
Shulman: 8.02 million
Level: 30
Blinds: 60,000/120,000
Ante: 15,000
Shove Straight Off the Bat
The next hand got to a flop: . Check to Negreanu on the button now, who bet 275k, again greeted with a fold. This time he looked a little frustrated about it, saying, "Yes that's the flop!" rubbing his cards together before throwing them back to be shuffled yet again. I think he would have been quite happy to commit the lot there too, but Shulman's being very careful to avoid doing that and giving his wily opponent another chance to get back in the game.
Recovery in Progress?
Both players appear to have backed off once again come the turn, checking both that and the river. Both players turned their hands over, but woefully the dealer did not think to show them to the camera so all we know comes from TD Jack Effel: "Daniel shows a pair of sixes and it's good to take the pot."
Daniel Getting Fitted For Permanent Set of Boots
Flop: Negreanu bet 850k, as sure a sign of commital to the hand as a wedding ring. Shulman passed and Negreanu showed - for the fourth pair of (shown) Aces on this final!
