Negreanu and Foxen Are Crushing the Sickest $600 WSOP Event Ever

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

It’s no surprise to see Daniel Negreanu and Alex Foxen run deep at the WSOP... but not usually in a $600 tournament.

With just 31 remaining in Tuesday’s $600 Deepstack Mixed NLH/PLO, the cream has well and truly risen to the top, with some of the game’s biggest names sitting on big stacks at the head of what was a 3,332-entry field.

There’s $204,140 up top and a gold bracelet waiting at the finish line, so plenty to play for, even by high roller standards.

Dunaway Turns on Kapnopoulos

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

After a few pots of raise-folding by Braxton Dunaway from early positions and scooping the blinds, Ioannis Kapnopoulos opened to 200,000 from the hijack and Dunaway defended the big blind.

A 846 flop was bet by Kapnopoulos for 130,000 after seeing Dunaway check. The pair saw the 8 turn and checked to the J river. Dunaway bet 400,000 which saw Kapnopoulos make a quick fold.
