Ingalls Doubles Through Negreanu
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
After Dan Zack opened under-the-gun to 400, he got a call by the next two players to act. After the cutoff folded, Daniel Negreanu on the button joked whether he should go crazy or not, presumably referring to if he should just call or raise, he decided on a call.
The small blind, Jonathan Ingalls then potted it to 3,200 and just Zack and Negreanu called.
A flop of 
fell and Negreanu joked ''That flop isn't you, haha'' to Ingalls, who bet pot to 11,900. Zack folded and Negreanu called.
The 
turn came down and the poised Ingalls moved all in for 7,200 more before breaking out his camera. Negreanu noticed this and responded ''You filming me? You filming me bro?!'' before getting our his own vlogging camera in some kind of vlog warfare.
Back to the actual hand in progress and Negreanu ended up calling and cards were tabled.
Jonathan Ingalls: 
Daniel Negreanu: 
''Four ball!'', said Ingalls as the dealer pealed the to give the win the Ingalls. ''You have me covered?! No!'' said Ingalls, as he realised he didn't get Negreanu's bounty.
