Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 3,000 ante

After Koray Aldemir raised from the cutoff with the {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, Daniel Negreanu three-bet him light holding the {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} in the small blind.

Aldemir just called and promptly flopped a set on the {j-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{k-Spades} flop. Negreanu, who flopped an open-ended straight draw, bet 16,000 and Aldemir called to see the {2-Hearts} turn.

Negreanu took another stab at it with a bet of 45,000, but he couldn't shake Aldemir, who just called. Fortunately for Negreanu, he hit his gin card when the {9-Spades} river gave him the nuts.

Negreanu bet 125,000 and Aldemir hit the tank. He used a time extension and then announced himself all in for 326,000 total. Negreanu snap-called and just like that Aldemir was out.
