Negreanu Tries Wiese
A sneaky Daniel Negreanu, with a combination of disguised hand and non-stop patter finessed a couple of hundred thousand out of Andreas Wiese just now in a blind on blind confrontation.
It folded to Negreanu preflop, who started up immediately: "It's me and you, buddy. You're a new guy! I have no history with you. I'm probably just going to limp. Yes." He limped. Wiese checked.
The flop: . Negreanu checked, Wiese bet 100k, Negreanu called.
The turn: . Check to Wiese once again; he bet 250k.
"I thnk you probably have the best hand," said Negreanu, "But I can't fold yet! There's too much stuff going on. There's a while bunch of stuff I could do... never mind. I'm calling 250. Gimme what I need, one time, one time..."
The river: . A third check from Negreanu saw Wiese run out of steam and uncertainly turn over for a pair of fours, while Negreanu turned over to take the pot.
