Negreanu Shows the Key Card
Level 8
: 2,000/4,000, 3,000 ante
There was already around 50,000 in the middle and the Tom Marchese led out for 28,000 from the big blind on a board reading 
. Daniel Negreanu called on the button and the 
completed the board. Marchese fired another 42,000 and Negreanu felt as if he was paying off another big hand. He played with his chips and said, "I'm calling anyway, no sense in wasting time," as he put his chips in the pot. Marchese tossed his cards to the muck and Negreanu flashed the 
as his "key card".
Here is a look at some other chip counts around the room with Keith Tilston and Justin Bonomo leading the way.
