Daniel Negreanu calls an under the gun 200 chip raise as does the big blind, Flop comes
The UTG raiser bets 1,000, Negreanu calls and the Big Blind folds, Turn comes
and UTG bets 2,500, Negreanu calls, river comes
UTG bets 5,000 and Negreanu moves all in for his remaining 2,000. UTG calls and Daniel says “straight flush” and flips over . UTG mucks and stares at his few remaining chips wistfully, Negreanu is sitting on about 19,000.
A quick survey of the card room tells me that we probable won’t be starting on time today and a 15-20 minute delay looks likely. There are a number of big names playing today and glancing around the Vic, I can see Gavin Griffin, Noah Boeken, John Gale and Mel Judah. Players are still buying in, but at the last glance of the card rooms system there where 214 registered entries for Day 1B of the London EPT.
Join us from 13:00 GMT for the second starting day which looks to have the stronger field and includes Daniel Negreanu, Patrik Antonius, Andrew Black, Roland De Wolfe and Liz Lieu to name but a few.
