Negreanu Soars After Eliminating Kerbel

Level 9
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Big O

Max Kruse called in the hijack while Jay Kerbel called on the button. Daniel Negreanu came along in the small blind and Lawrence Berg checked his option in the big blind.

The flop rolled out K48 and Negreanu lead out for 2,500, folding out Berg while Kruse called. Kerbel raised to 15,000, prompting Negreanu to raise to 52,500. Kruse folded and Kerbel called.

On the turn A, Negreanu moved all in for 23,000 effective.

"That was a terrible card for me, but I'm still calling," said Kerbel as he put in the chips.

Jay Kerbel: AKJ54 All in
Daniel Negreanu: AQQQ2

Kerbel was leading with his two pair against Negreanu's flush draw, but the river 3 put Negreanu out in front making the nut flush and an eight-perfect low to scoop Kerbel and soar up the counts.
