Negreanu Chips Up Further

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

In a battle of the PokerStars Team Pros, Daniel Negreanu bet the {6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Spades} river for 70,000 and Igor Kurganov in the hijack eventually called. "I have a pair" Negreanu announced and turned over the {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}, while Kurganov mucked his cards.

One hand later, Negreanu raised to 12,500 and Dan Colman defended the big blind. Colman checked the {K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and quickly folded when Negreanu continued for 10,000.
