Daniel Negreanu Eliminated in 4th Place ($130,401)

Scott Clements raised from under the gun, and Negreanu talked himself into calling from the big blind. "All right. I gotta call. Only because it's Scott, I gotta call."

The flop came {3-Spades}

, and Negreau moved all in for his last 40,000. Clements called.

Showdown
Clements: {2-Spades}

Negreanu:

Negreanu was ahead with his trip fours, but the hand wasn't over yet. Disastrously, the {A-Spades}

hit fourth street, improving Clements to the wheel and leaving Negreanu drawing to a pair to make a full house. The {J-Spades}

that hit the river was a blank, and Daniel Negreanu has been sent out in 5th place.

Negreanu put up a stunning battle today, and we can't even begin to count how many times he was all in. Negreanu's jovial nature led him far here in Event #18, and he'll take home nearly $135,000 for his work, adding another final-table notch to his belt.
