[user75032]

A player at Daniel Negreanu's table actually bowed to him after a recent hand. Negreanu bet a {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{9-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

flop and was called. He check-called a bet on the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

turn and checked again when the river fell {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

. His opponent made the price of a showdown 9,000 chips.

"I only lose to a set," mused Negreanu. "Do you really have a set?" Negreanu studied his opponent a few moments longer and then threw 9,000 of his own chips into the pot. His opponent showed down a complete airball, {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{10-Spades}

. Negreanu happily turned over {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

-- a busted ace-high flush draw -- to rake in the pot with a very "sick call".

Negreanu is up to about 55,000.
