Daniel Negreanu Eliminated in 10th Place ($64,448)
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu opened to 160,000 from the button and Sam Soverel shoved from the big blind, covering Negreanu who had roughly 1,800,000 to start the hand. Negreanu called, putting himself at risk.
Daniel Negreanu: 9♣9♦
Sam Soverel: 8♣8♦
Negreanu had his opponent pipped and was in great shape to double up until the A♥K♣8♥ flop gave Soverel bottom set, leaving Negreanu drawing to just two outs. Negreanu couldn't make a set of his own on the A♣ turn or 4♠ river and his run came to an end just three spots shy of the unofficial final table.
