Negreanu Takes from Jouhkimainen

Laura Fryer
Laura Fryer
Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Joni Jouhkimainen opened to 12,000 from middle position and Cary Katz called from the hijack. Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 54,000 and only Jouhkimainen called.

The 8♦6♠8♣ flop saw Jouhkimainen check and Negreanu bet 25,000. Jouhkimainen asked for the size of the pot before flicking in a 25,000 chip to call.

A 4♦ turn was checked by both to see the J♥ river. Both checked to showdown and Negreanu flipped over his A♣A♦9♣4♣ for two pair, which was enough to see Jouhkimainen muck his hand.
