Negreanu Falls, Moore Progresses

[user80015]

Daniel Negreanu and Chris Moore both reached heads up play fairly even in chips after dispatching of Todd Brunson.

However after battling back and forth Moore took a huge lead after the following hand.

Moore opened to 1,800 from the button and Negreanu made it 6,400 to go. Moore made the call to see a {5-} {4-} {2-} flop fall and a 8,000-chip bet follow from Negreanu. Moore made it 23,000 and Negreanu moved all in with Moore making the call for his tournament life.

Moore: {4-} {4-}
Negreanu: {A-} {5-}

The turn and river brought no help for Negreanu as he slipped to a near fifteen-to-one chip disadvantage.

A few hands later on a {Q-Spades} {2-Spades} {8-Clubs} flop Negreanu committed his remaining chips with {7-Spades} {6-Spades} , but was unable to outdraw Moore's {Q-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} .
