Negreanu Eliminated

Daniel Negreanu was down to his last little bit of chips when he called all in for 500 after Vitaly Lunkin raised.

"I wanted ace-ace-deuce-three, but I'll settle for this," Negreanu said as he put in his last chips.

The button and small blind also called and the flop came down {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{6-Clubs}. The small blind and Lunkin both checked before the button bet. Both players called.

The {8-Spades} was checked by all three active players on the turn before the {6-Spades} landed on the river. This is where things got a little wild while all Negreanu could do was look on and await his fate.

The small blind bet, Lunkin raised and then the button reraised. The small blind folded, Lunkin reraised again and then the button called. As this was going on, Negreanu joked, "So what's tomorrow at noon?"

Lunkin showed the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} when all the betting was done and had the top full house. His opponent mucked. Negreanu showed the {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} and lost. He was eliminated.

The {9-Diamonds} hit the river and when the hands were revealed, Schulman tabled {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} for the second nut low and jack-high straight. One of his opponent's showed {A-}{4-} for the nut low, giving Schulman half the pot to survive.
