Negreanu Climbs Back To Starting Stack

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

From the cutoff seat, Joseph Cheong raised to 4,500. Mikhail Smirnov called on the button, then Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu reraised to 13,000 from the big blind. Cheong folded, but Smirnov called.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, and Negreanu fired 16,000. Smirnov called, and the turn was the {5-Diamonds}. Negreanu bet 27,000, and Smirnov called again.

The river paired the board with the {5-Hearts}, and Negreanu bet 52,000. Smirnov gave it up, and Negreanu won the pot.
