Halverson Takes Down Pot with Nines Full
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/1,000, 1,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu opened from under the gun for 32,000 into a 50,000 pot on a board of K♠9♣2♥Q♠2♣. Mitchell Halverson raised to 80,000 from the big blind.
Negreanu took a moment to employ his famous reading skills, putting Halverson on "Queen-jack or king-jack of clubs," and then called. Halverson showed 9♦9♠ for trips on the flop and boat on the river, and Negreanu mucked.
