Negreanu Suggests a Fun Game

Chad Holloway

We wandered by Daniel Negreanu's table and overheard him talking to the other five players at his table, which happens to include Daniel Alaei and David Singer. Negreanu was suggesting that they all try playing heads-up no-limit hold'em sometime, but with a little catch.

In the game, one player is given the choice to either see his opponent's hole cards from the get go, or he can pick to see the turn and river cards in advance. Whichever option he chooses, his opponent is awarded the other. Negreanu claims to have played before and actually had a lot of fun, claiming it is better to have the ability to see the turn/river cards in advance.
