Level 1

No Limit Hold'em

Brian Yoon opened the cutoff to 3,500 and was called by Cary Katz on the button and David Benyamine in the small blind. In the big blind, Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 15,500 and was called by all three opponents to create a pot of 64,000.

On the 744 flop, Negreanu continued for 16,000 and was called in no less than three spots as the four players went to a turn.

"Is this limit?" joked tablemate Mike Gorodinsky.

The 3 turn checked through to the 8 river which saw Benyamine lead for 25,000. Negreanu quickly folded, Yoon called, and Katz got out of the way. Benyamine tabled 65 for a straight to drag the largest pot of the day so far.
