Negreanu vs. Sointula

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The blinds and antes are small in comparison to the deep starting stack, but the players haven't shied away from a little action. In a recent hand, action folded to Jani Sointula in the cutoff and he raised to 2,500, which Daniel Negreanu called from the small blind. Both players proceeded to check the {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, bringing about the {A-Clubs} turn.

This time Negreanu took the initiative and led out for 3,500, and after a little thought, Sointula tossed in a call. Both players returned to checking on the {K-Hearts} river, and Negreanu rolled over {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} for a rivered pair of kings. Unfortunately for him, Sointula revealed {A-Hearts}{7-Spades} to win the pot.
