Negreanu Eliminates Tang in a Monster Pot
Level 14
: 1,200/2,400, 0 ante
Daniel Negreanu was in the hijack and his right-hand opponent Ben Tang had a decision on the 
flop.
They had some chips already spread in front of them when we arrived and Tang eventually said, "OK, I'm all in." Negreanu called immediately.
Tang: 
Negreanu: 
Tang had aces and a flush draw but he was trailing against Negreanu's set of deuces.
The runout 
and 
gave Negreanu a six-high straight and the same low and Tang was dispatched. Negreanu reached to his right and claimed Tang's stack of 70,000 or so.
Negreanu is now among the tournament leaders along with Brandon Cantu and Brad Albrinck.
