Double Up Means Survival For Negreanu
We caught up with the action on the turn with a board reading 
.
Daniel Negreanu was heads-up against another player and fired a bet from the big blind. His opponent then moved all in from late position and Negreanu called off his remaining stack to put himself at risk.
Negreanu: 
for a flopped straight.
Opponent: 
for a pair of queens.
As it turned out, Negreanu wasn't really at "risk" at all as he had his opponent drawing dead. A meaningless 
landed on the river and Negreanu doubled through back to 150,000.
