Negreanu Busts Miyashiro and Moves Over 300K
Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu just took out Alexandre Hideo Miyashiro to move over the 300,000-chip mark and further extend his lead on the rest of the field. Here's how it went down just moments ago.
Action folded over to Miyashiro in the hijack seat and he took some time before raising all in for 36,600. Negreanu took a few moments and then called. Everyone else folded and the hands were tabled.
Negreanu was dominating Miyashiro's 
with his 
and in good shape to knock the shorter-stacked player out of the tournament. Still, the five community cards had a chance to save Miyashiro.
The flop came down 
and Miyashiro picked up an open-ended straight draw. He also had a backdoor flush draw, but the 
on the turn left he needing just an ace or a nine on the river.
The final card on the board was the 
and gave both players a pair of tens. Twice in this tournament we've seen Negreanu have a second-best kicker, but not this time. His ace was the better was the two kickers and Negreanu sent Miyashiro to the rail.
