Daniel Negreanu opened pre-flop from early position to 1,375. A player two seats to his left re-raised to 4,000. Battle was joined when everyone else folded and Negreanu casually called.

A flop of {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

{Q-Diamonds}

drew a quick check from Negreanu. His opponent eyeballed Negreanu's stack (about 30,000), then bet 3,100. Negreanu called.

Both players checked the {5-Clubs}

turn. Negreanu checked again on the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

river, then launched into his trademark hand discussion after his opponent fired out for 7,500.

"I definitely wasn't hoping for that card," he said as he launched his hand into the muck. His opponent showed {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{A-Spades}

.

"Whoa, you had everything there," Negreanu remarked. "That card cost you money on the river."
