Daniel Negreanu raised from the hijack, and Jeffrey Lipton three-bet from the button. Negreanu made the call.
The dealer spread a flop of A♣Q♥8♥. Lipton bet after Negreanu checked, and Negreanu check-called. The action repeated on the Q♣ turn.
The K♥ river completed the board, and this time both players checked. “I have an ace,” Negreanu said, revealing A♠7♠ for two pair. Lipton mucked his hand.
