Negreanu All In with Pocket Eights

Isaac Haxton opened from middle position for 3,200 only to have Daniel Negreanu reraise to 11,600 from the button. Noah Schwartz then four-bet to 40,800, Haxton folded, and Negreanu called all in for 20,000.

Negreanu: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Schwartz: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

As one might expect, it was another race situation. Luckily for Negreanu, the board ran out {5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} and his eights held for the double.
