Negreanu So Close

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Peter Kresz, a PokerStars Qualifier from Hungary opened from early position and got a call from Daniel Negreanu who announced “This could be the one.” as he put in the chips. Two more callers behind and we saw a flop of {3-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. Kresz continued for 525 and got calls from Negreanu and the small blind. {3-Hearts} on the turn and Kresz ploughed on betting another 1,500. This time Negreanu was the only caller and they saw a river of {q-Diamonds}. Kresz bet for the last time, 2,100. Negreanu held his cards up and released them in frustration. “So close.” He said. “So far.” replied Kresz and turned over his {3-Clubs}{3-Spades} for quads. “Oh wow, thank God. I had a pair and a flush draw.” claimed Negreanu.
