Negreanu Takes One with Aggression

donpeters

Daniel Negreanu raised to 6,000 from early-middle position with the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{4-Spades}

. JC Tran just flat-called with the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Diamonds}

and then Phil Hellmuth called with the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{8-Spades}

. Luke Schwartz called from the big blind with the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

.

The flop came down with the one card Tran didn't want to see, an ace: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{7-Hearts}

{5-Clubs}

. Schwartz checked and Negreanu fired a continuation bet for 15,000. One by one, everyone in the hand folded and Negreanu picked up the pot with the worst starting hand of the bunch.
