Since the dinner break, Daniel Negreanu has been moved to the table with Tom Schneider, David Gee, and Mark Newhouse. Just recently, Negreanu's won a few hands in a row and built himself up nicely.

On the first hand, he raised preflop and then barreled all three streets against David Gee. Gee folded on the river on a board of {8-Spades}

to give Negreanu the pot.

On the next hand, Negreanu raised preflop and then bet all three streets from the button as the board ran out {7-Diamonds}

. His opponent called him down the entire way with a pair of nines.

Next, Negreanu battled with Mark Newhouse. Negreanu made sixes full of threes on a board of {9-Spades}

to scoop that pot. He has about 15,000 chips now.

Zolotow Triples with Ace High

donpeters

A player in middle position raised, Joe Cassidy made it three bets, and then Steve Zolotow made it four bets. The first player called as did Cassidy.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs}

and everyone checked. The turn was the {2-Clubs}

, pairing the board with deuces. Action checked to Zolotow and he fired a bet of 225. It was all he had left. Both players call.

The river was the {4-Spades}

and the remaining two active players checked.

"I can't win." said the first player. Zolotow then turned up {A-Diamonds}

for ace high. The first player had mucked already and Cassidy doubled checked, but mucked as well.

"No, no, no, you can't do this to me. You're really going to make me go on dinner break and come back with no chips?" said Zolotow. "How does ace high win?"
