Negreanu Busts One

Poker superstar Daniel Negreanu has just eliminated Richard Lyndaker a short while before the first break of the day. The last hand of Lyndaker's tournament began when Negreanu opened it up from the button. Lyndaker re-raised in the small blind and Negreanu made the call.

The {q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop saw Lyndaker bet and Negreanu call as a {2-Clubs} hit the turn. This time when Lyndaker again bet, Negreanu raised. Lyndaker re-raised and Negreanu made it a final raise as Lyndaker committed his last chips to the pot.

Lyndaker: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Negreanu: {q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

Negreanu was well in front at this point and it stayed this way as a {2-Clubs} completed the board on the river.
