Vedes Draws First Blood

Tommy Vedes
Tommy Vedes

Action folded to Daniel Negreanu in early position, and he raised it up to 32,000. Everyone else folded except for Tommy Vedes, who defended his big blind. The two players checked on the flop, {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}, and the turn, the {10-Hearts}, but Vedes fired out a bet of 26,000 when the {6-Clubs} hit the river. Negreanu made the call, and Vedes showed {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} for a rivered set. Negreanu simply flashed an ace before mucking. After that loss, Negreanu dips down to 150,000, while Vedes is up over 300,000.
