"What Makes Me a Good Poker Player": Negreanu Just Calls With Fourth Nuts
Level 10
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu made an impressive play that got the whole table talking in a three-way pot against Chad Eveslage in the small blind and Michael Wang in middle position.
Action checked to Negreanu in the cutoff on the flop of 4♥2♠K♣ and he bet 25,000. Eveslage folded and Wang called. Both players then checked on the 3♦ turn.
The 8♦ river completed the board and Wang put out an overbet of 115,000. Negreanu gave it some thought and announced "call."
Wang showed K♦K♠ for top set, and Negreanu giggled before tabling 8♠8♣ after just calling with a set of eights for the fourth nuts.
"This is part of what makes me a good poker player!" Negreanu cheered as others at the table sat in disbelief.
