Running with the Small Ball

Shamus

In a hold'em hand, Daniel Negreanu just limped from middle position, and the table folded around to the player in the big blind. "Go Cowboys, yee haw!" said Negreanu, responding to the BB's Dallas cap and Tony Romo jersey.

The flop came {A-Hearts}

, the Dallas fan checked, Negreanu bet 100, and his opponent folded.

"Getting away with murder," said a player from across the table. "What're you gonna do there, check-raise me?" asked Negreanu. "Maybe," came the reply. "You'll just lose more," said Negreanu with a smile.

Shortly afterwards, Negreanu won a hold'em hand with nines full, and now has chipped up to 9,000.
