Negreanu Settles for a Double Up

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Daniel Negreanu

A minute after Daniel Negreanu admitted he was just hoping to make it to the end of the day without having to spend another €100,000, his chips were in the middle.

He called a Talal Shakerchi raise and a c-bet before the the rest of the chips went in on the turn when the board read {4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Spades}.

Shakerchi opened {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} but had been out-flopped by Negreanu and his {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} for a set. The river came as the {j-Diamonds}.
