Negreanu Sits Down and Chips Up
A player opened to 700 in early position, and Daniel Negreanu, who just recently sat down, three-bet to 2,400 from the big blind.
"Here we go," the inaugural World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific Main Event winner said, grinning.
His opponent made the call, and the dealer spread . Kid Poker led out for 4,800, and the player started to tank.
"Oh boy," Negreanu sighed. "You have it."
The player apparently didn't have "it," because he folded. Negreanu happily dragged in the pot.
