Stud Hi-Lo

Johannes Becker completed first to act with a {j-Spades} and Daniel Negreanu raised on his left with the {a-Clubs}. Everyone else folded, and Becker called. Negreanu caught a great card on fourth with the {3-Clubs} and continued his aggression, but Becker paired his jack on fifth and began betting.

Becker: {x-}{x-}/{j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Negreanu: {x-}{x-}/{a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

On sixth, Negreanu slammed his chips together and muttered something to himself. He counted out the last two bets he'd have to call, this one and a presumed river bet, and thought over a minute before sliding in a call. Becker bet the end as well, and Negreanu sighed and called.

Becker showed {j-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for three jacks.

"Bravo, man," Negreanu said. "Bra-f******-o."
