Raymer Crippled; Negreanu Eliminated

Chad Holloway

We happened upon the table as the dealer was pushing a massive 25,000 pot to an unknown player in Seat 9. It soon became apparent that the unfortunate victim in the hand was none other than 2004 World Series of Poker Main Event winner Greg Raymer. We didn't see Fossilman's hand, but his opponent was showing {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {9-Clubs} on a board reading {3-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} . Raymer was left with just 7,000 after the hand.

Meanwhile, Daniel Negreanu was eliminated from the tournament. The dealer swiped away the board before we could piece together what happened, but we do know that Negreanu's demise came at the hands of Marco Traniello.
