Color-Up Carnage; Negreanu Busts 24th

Daniel Negreanu, Raced Out
Daniel Negreanu, Raced Out
While racks appeared as if out of nowhere to remove the extraneous 100 chips, a hand was still in play on Negreanu's table. He had raised preflop after one limper under the gun (Christoph Bommes). Back to Bommes, who'd then moved all in. Not having had the best of levels, Bommes now covered Negreanu, and he was faced with a decision for his tournament life. After a long think, he called.

Negreanu: {9-Spades} {9-Clubs}
Bommes: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}

Flop: {8-Spades} {K-Spades} {4-Diamonds} "Yay!" went a hitherto silent fan base on the rail.
Turn: {2-Spades} Now the odd Negreanu fan went "Nine!"
River: {Q-Hearts} And that spells the end of Negreanu's first bracelet pursuit of this WSOPE.
