Negreanu Spikes the River to Survive & Shouts at Kabhrel
Level 18
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
From early position, Daniel Negreanu raised to 350,000 from his stack of 610,000. Everyone folded around to Sean Rafael in the big blind, who jammed to put Negreanu all in. Negreanu called for the remainder of his stack.
Daniel Negreanu: J♠10♠5♣4♣
Sean Rafael: A♣A♥8♠6♠
Rafael had aces but Negreanu had four live cards. The dealer put out a flop of A♦7♥3♣ to give Rafael top set, but Negreanu had a straight draw. The J♥ turn didn't change anything, but the 6♣ rolled off on the river to give Negreanu the nuts, and he doubled up.
Negreanu turned around and shouted "Not like this!!" at Martin Kabhrel, who was playing the Main Event on the other side of the Events Center.
