Negreanu and Douglas Chop Up Ho

Level 2 : 300/600, 0 ante

Shane Douglas limped from early position, Daniel Negreanu raised from the button, Maria Ho called from the small blind, and Douglas called.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}, and each player committed four bets to see the {9-Hearts} turn. Action checked to Negreanu and he bet. Both Ho and Douglas check-called to see the {3-Diamonds} river where everybody checked.

Ho showed {A-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} for the nut low draw that became just a pair of threes with an 8-4-3-2-A low, Douglas tabled {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} for fours and deuces, and Negreanu turned over {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades} for aces with a 6-4-3-2-A low.

Douglas won the high with his baby two pair, while Negreanu took the low.
