Negreanu Calls Clock on "Jeff Limpiski"
PLO – PLO 8 – Big O - PLTD: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 Ante
NLFCD & 2-7 NL: 20,000/40,000, 60,000 Ante
Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
"Blood game, gentleman!" Daniel Negreanu said as an orbit of Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw began.
The carnage started right away as Jeff Madsen limped in from under the gun, leading Negreanu to joke that his new nickname should be "Jeff Limpiski."
"It doesn't really work with Madsen, though," commented Robert Mclaughlin.
"It's not supposed to," countered Negreanu.
Bariscan Betil called on the button and Negreanu checked in the big blind. Negreanu drew two, Madsen drew one and Betil drew two.
Negreanu checked after the first draw and Madsen bet 78,000. Betil called and Negreanu folded. Madsen stood pat and Betil drew one.
Madsen bet 143,000 after the second draw and Betil raised to 345,000. Madsen called as both players stood pat.
Madsen checked after the final draw and Betil bet 575,000 to send Madsen into a five-minute tank. Negreanu eventually called the clock and Madsen let his hand die to surrender the sizable pot to Betil.
