The flop came 6♣7♥4♥. Lyons bet 10,500 with top pair, Smith folded and Kyte called with two overcards and the backdoor nut-flush draw.

Sava Krink

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

With around 42,000 in the pot and the board showing 10♠2♠Q♥K♦, Nitesh Rawtani checked it over to Justin Lapka, who tossed out a bet of 15,000. Rawtani made the call, taking them to the river.

The 8♠ completed the board, and Rawtani checked once more. Lapka took his time before deciding to check back, bringing the hand to a showdown.

Rawtani revealed Q♠J♦ for a pair of queens and a missed straight draw, but Lapka turned over A♠A♦ for the overpair, good enough to take the pot. Rawtani was left with less than a starting stack as Lapka dragged in the chips.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Loni Hui kicked the action off with a raise to 8,000 in middle position. Directly to her left, Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 30,000, leaving a sole 500 chip behind. The play folded back to Hui, who moved all in, and Negreanu called.

Daniel Negreanu: K♦Q♥ All in
Loni Hui: 8♥8♣

"All I have to do is win a flip", said Negreanu.

The flop came down 3♦Q♠7♥, and it was a good start for Negreanu. The turn J♦ and river Q♣ improved him to trips, providing him a double up.

"Main Event Done": Levy Spikes River to Bust Negreanu

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Connor Richards

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu opened to 8,000 in early position and Simon Levy three-bet to 25,000 in the small blind. Negreanu pulled out his selfie stick and said "this means I've decided" before four-bet jamming a stack of 53,000. Levy called.

Daniel Negreanu: 9♥9♦ All in
Simon Levy: A♥Q♠

"Okay, we're ahead," Negreanu said when his opponent turned over ace-queen.

The flop of 4♣8♠K♥ didn't change anything, but the 10♥ turn gave Levy additional outs with a Broadway draw. However, the Q♣ river was all he needed to send the Poker Hall of Famer to the rail.

"Ay ay ay. GG. Main Event done," Negreanu said as he left.
