Negreanu Scoops a Monster Pot From Esfandiari

Level 3 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu opened in middle position with a raise to 40,000. Antonio Esfandiari was next to act from middle position and he raised to 101,000. Action folded back around and Negreanu called.

The flop was {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Spades} and Negreanu checked to Esfandiari who put out a bet of 53,000. Negreanu called.

On the {10-Clubs} turn, Negreanu led out, betting 100,000. Esfandiari thought for a bit before raising and making it 368,000. Negreanu then took him time and raised to 1,200,000. Esfandiari called.

On the {4-Spades} river, Negreanu checked. Esfandiari checked behind. Negreanu showed {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for the nut straight and Esfandiari let out a groan before mucking his hand.

"I was very happy to hear you check on the river," Negreanu said after the hand.
