Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

PokerNews was just alerted to the elimination of Daniel Negreanu by his now-former tablemates.

As told by his executioner, Venkata Tayi, Negreanu was all-in by the final draw holding 2x3x4x5x and drawing one, while Tayi was still drawing two cards.

Negreanu paired his deuce, while Tayi drew an ace and a nine to go with his three babies, making his ace-low the winner and sending the Poker Hall of Famer to the rail.

Zack Freeman: 766 / 57J8

Philip Sternheimer bet fourth and fifth street to get called by Zack Freeman before both then checked sixth street. Sternheimer bet again seventh and Freeman made the call.

Double Knockout for Bach

Level 16

Pot-Limit Omaha

On a three-way flop of KJ3, Richard Mirin bet 5,000 out of the small blind. Aaron Schaff raised to 20,000 for David Bach to call on the button. Mirin tanked for a while and pushed all-in, prompting the snap shove by Schaff and snap-call by Bach with the superior stack.

Richard Mirin: KJ53
Aaron Schaff: KK43x
David Bach: AQ109

Mirin was in rough shape against top set and a full wrap while Bach had a ton of outs to knock out two opponents. One of them came with the 10 turn and the 5 river failed to pair the board, sending Schaff to the rail as well.

Badeudey

Picking up the action on the second draw, three bets went in between Jason Sagle, Adithya Sundar and Kirill Tsyngalev with the latter being the main aggressor. Tsyngalev patted and both opponents took two new cards, after which Tsyngalev bet again. Sagle was the only caller as Sundar opted to fold.

Tsyngalev patted again for Sagle to take two new cards and Tsyngalev then bet-called.

Sagle rolled over the 7 / 5432 for the nuts and Tsyngalev sighed. "I had a nine, nine and broke it up," Sagle mentioned in the table chat while Tsyngalev responded with "I had an eight, eight".

Matt Vengrin: 5x9x / 6x4x8x3x / 9x
Greg Raymer: Ax9x / 4x8x10x3x / Xx

Greg Raymer was already all-in by the the time all cards were revealed on fifth street. He sighed after sixth street when the dealer verified if the last card should be dealt face up or down. "It doesn't matter, he can't lose anymore," Raymer noted.

Vengrin locked ip the hand with an eighty-six to knock out Raymer.

"What is your name?" the former Main Event champion asked when he was about to sign one of his rocks to give away to everyone that knocks him out. "It is on his hat," Jim Collopy suggested [which shows dickhead].
