- folded fifth street
Action picked up on sixth street in a four-way pot. Andrew Brown checked, Ali Eslami bet, which folded out one player. Dominik Baud raised a second bet. Back on Brown, he put in the three-bet. Eslami and Baud both called the raise and they went to the next street three ways.
All three players checked sixth street after Brown paired his king but Eslami added a fourth heart.
On seventh, Baud was the one who bet and both other players called.
Baud showed his eighty-seven rough for the low, Eslami claimed the high with a queen-high flush.

Daniel Negreanu completed showing the just left of the bring-in. One by one, the entire table folded.
Negreanu showed the 
in the hole.
"Bluffing is the best. I didn't even have a pair, everyone folded. Bluffing's the best. No pair."
"I had a pair of threes," said a tablemate.
"See? I bluffed your ass," as Negreanu clucked like a chicken to mock all those in fear of entering a pot with him.
