Negreanu the Straight Guy

[user252447]

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

The board read and Daniel Negreanu had bet 55,000 into a pot of just under 100,000.

Fabian Quoss was on the receiving end of the bet and didn��t look happy about it. He shook his head for a while and made the call.

Negreanu tabled for the turned straight which elicited more sighs from Quoss who mucked his hand.

After that hand was over Negreanu was involved in the next hand against Ping San Chan. Phil Ivey was looking over from another table. ��I had the nuts. Of course.�� Negreanu said about the last hand.

��No man makes more straights than this guy.�� Ivey said.

��No man goes for more straights than me.�� replied Negreanu, who declared that he was now going to make a straight in this hand with the board reading and bet 15,000.

Chan raised him to 45,000 and Negreanu plonked down the chips to call. They both checked the turn and river . ��I don��t think a straight is winning now.�� Negreanu said and Chan agreed.
