Negreanu Busts, Will Fire Second Bullet

Level 6

Big O

Travis Pearson raised on the button to 1,200 and was three-bet by Daniel Negreanu in the small blind. The big blind folded and Pearson called, with Negreanu only holding 6,600 chips behind.

Negreanu then checked the {6-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flop, and Pearson put forward a stack of yellow 1,000 denomination chips to put Negreanu all-in.

Negreanu debated briefly, but knowing he could re-enter if he busted, opted to make the call.

Daniel Negreanu: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Travis Pearson: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Negreanu had the best hand with his top pair and top kicker, but still needed to fade plenty, including a live low draw for Pearson.

The {7-Spades} fell on the turn to put Negreanu in rough shape, and the {a-Spades} filled up Pearson. Negreanu will return shortly with a fresh 35,000 starting stack.
