This was most definitely a tournament Daniel Negreanu will want to forget.
The action started with "cemps" min-raising to 160 in early position. From the hijack "dev209" called, but Negreanu squeezed to 640 in the cutoff. Action folded back to "cemps" who called, but "dev209" had other plans. A four-bet to 1,680 came, leading Negreanu to shove for 8,312.
Folding was "cemps", calling was "dev209".
Negreanu: 

"dev209": 

A 

flop put Negreanu well in front and the
turn kept him there. However, the
spiked on the river to send Negreanu to the rail during Level 3.

Johnny Lodden raised to 180 on the button. In the big blind, "k0b0Ldm4k1" three-bet to 511. Lodden didn't seem to mind, four-betting to 1,260. A call from his opponent brought a 

flop to the board. It was checked to Lodden who bet another 1,260. Another call from "k0b0Ldm4k1" delivered the
on the turn where action was checked to Lodden again.
He bet 2,820, but once again was not able to shake "k0b0Ldm4k1". The
river was quickly checked by both, with "k0b0Ldm4k1" showing 
. Lodden tabled 
and they chopped it up.
