Nestola Sweats, Recovers
Under the gun, Daniel Nestola came in with a raise to 26,000, and Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 66,000 from the button. Nestola spent some time pondering before making the call, and off they went.
The dealer spread out , and it would prove to be quite the action flop. Nestola checked, allowing Negreanu to continue out with 72,000 before shoving all in. It was 395,000 total, and Negreanu spent just a moment eyeballing it before announcing the call.
Showdown
Nestola:
Negreanu:
It was quite the flop for both men, and Negreanu was looking to take a massive chip lead if he could find an out.
The turn opened up another four outs for Negreanu, but thirteen of them wasn't enough. The river was the blank , and that's a big pot to Nestola's corner. It moves him back into the chip lead and close to the million-chip mark, while Negreanu slips back to about 700,000.
