2025 WSOP Paradise
Action was heads up on the 9♠4♥3♦Q♦ turn, with just under 2,000,000 already in the middle.
Alex Anton checked from the big blind, and Mark Darner slid enough chips forward to put his opponent all in. After taking some time, Anton let his hand go.
Darner, who took down Event #1: $2,500 WSOP Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty here in Paradise for his second WSOP bracelet, added new chips to his stack.
Jun Obara raised in early position and Daniel Negreanu called off in the big blind for less.
"It's rare that you get to play with your final chips with your favorite hand," Negreanu said. "I have my absolute favorite hand."
Daniel Negreanu: 10♥7♦
Jun Obara: K♦K♣
"I've been very lucky with this hand throughout my entire life," Negreanu said before the flop landed 2♦2♠A♠ to complete whiff him.
"Nope. That ain't it," Negreanu said as the board finished out J♥Q♠. "I made the pay jump!"
"You went all in with ten-seven? No wonder you're on 14 bullets!" quipped Eric Wasserson, though Negreanu is actually only on ten bullets.
