Negreanu Calls His Shot
"I'm going to have... 108,575 by the end of the day," Daniel Negreanu said as we walked by his table. "Do you believe me?"
One player at the table nodded in agreement before another player at the table piped up.
"I'd bet you," the player says.
"You don't think so?" Negreanu responded.
"The 25s don't play," the player said laughing, referring to the end of the night color of up of the green T25 chips.
"Damn it!" Negreanu said laughing as well.
"I'll give you whatever odds you want," the player said.
After their banter, a different player opened from the cutoff with a raise to 225. Negreanu was in the small blind and he cut out a raise.
"I'll make it however much this is," he said, three-betting to 1,025. The other player folded and that allowed Negreanu to take down the pot. It was a small one for Negreanu and he'll have to do a lot more work to reach his end of night prediction of 108,575.
