Josh Noy

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Joao Simao raised in the small blind and Daniel Negreanu defended his big blind to the J♦J♣9♣ flop. Simoa checked, as did Negreanu and the dealer flipped over the Q♠ turn.

Simao checked again and Negreanu fired 1,200 into the middle. The call was made, and the A♥ hit the river.

This time Simao led out for 4,200 and Negreanu took out his camera and began recounting the action.

After telling the table that Simao had aces or ace-jack, Negreanu decided to make the call and see his opponent's hand. Simao shook his head while turning over A♠A♦10♥9♦ for a full house on the river.

"I filled up on the turn," said Negreanu as he tabled K♥Q♥J♥4♠ while Simao raked in the pot.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Caesars Entertainment has finalized the $500 million sale of the biggest brand in poker to GGPoker's parent company, according to an announcement in late October.

Back in August, Caesars Entertainment shocked the poker world when it announced that it would be selling World Series of Poker (WSOP) to NSUS Group Inc, a leading investment group and operator GGPoker. The deal was solidified Tuesday and includes a $250 million cash transaction and a $250 million promissory note due in five years.

Though the WSOP sale marks a shakeup in the industry, poker players can still expect the summer WSOP to be held in Las Vegas for the next 20 years. Additionally, poker rooms at Caesars properties will continue to feature WSOP branding.
