Negreanu Gets Back Over Starting

Level 8 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Ren Lin opened to 25,000 from the hijack and Jesse Lonis called from the cutoff. Daniel Negreanu defended the big blind and the players went three-ways to the flop.

The 63J board was bet by Negreanu for 36,000 and Lin raised to 160,000. Both Lonis and Negreanu called behind to see the 6 turn.

Action checked through to the 7 river and again to showdown. There was some hesitation before Negreanu showed his AJ, and both other players went to muck. Lonis then flipped over his KJ to show he was just behind and Lin kept his cards face down.
