Negreanu Lies About His Hand
Level 7
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu called PokerNews to the table as he played a pot from the button against Nicholas Palma in the small blind.
Palma checked on the flop of 10♥2♥2♣ and Negreanu bet 25,000. Palma called. Both players then checked on the 3♦ turn.
Palma checked again on the Q♠ river and Negreanu took a sip of red wine before engaging in some table talk.
"Ten good? I have ace-ten of spades and think it's good. So I'm going to bet 40,000."
Palma called the bet and Negreanu burst into laughter as he turned over Q♥J♥ for a queen.
"I lied!" he cheered after getting called.
