Number Two No Good

Level 5

Robert Williamson III was on the button and raised. Daniel Negreanu was in the small blind and three-bet. George Lind was in the big blind and four-bet. Not to be outdone, Williamson capped it and both players called.

Negreanu drew two, Lind and Williamson both drew one. Negreanu had checked dark and Lind checked as well. Williamson bet, Negreanu called and Lind check-raised. Williamson made it three bets which Negreanu and Lind both called.

On the second draw, Negreanu took just one while Lind and Williamson stood pat. Negreanu checked dark again and Lind checked as well. Williamson bet out and Negreanu raised. Lind folded and Williamson called.

On the final draw both players stood pat and Negreanu bet. Williamson seemed aware that he was probably beat but made the call. He tabled {7-}{6-}{4-}{3-}{2-} but it was no good. Negreanu had {7-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} to ship the pot.

Negreanu begins a comeback march with 78,000 while Williamson falls to 155,000.
