Negreanu Arrived and Conquered
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Poker Hall of Famer Negreanu arrived at his table and immediately played his first hand. Tetsuro Tomita under the gun limped, and Eric Kim raised to 3,500. Daniel Negreanu called from middle position and so did Tomita. The flop showed Q♦6♣K♥.
Tomita checked, and Negreanu went all-in, covering the stack of Tomita, who ultimately called. Kim moved out of the way.
Tetsuro Tomita: A♥K♣ 
Daniel Negreanu: K♠7♠
At first, Tomita was ahead with a pair of kings and an ace kicker, but the turn showed 5♠ and the river 7♣, which gave Negreanu two pair and sent Tomita to the rails.
