Becker Takes All From Negreanu in Two Hands

Christian Zetzsche

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Johannes Becker raised from under the gun and Daniel Negreanu three-bet on the button for Becker to call. On the flop, Becker bet and Negreanu raised to receive a call from his opponent. That left Negreanu with exactly two big bets behind and he invested one of them on the turn when Becker bet and he called.

Becker also instantly bet the river and Negreanu was stunned.

"It has been like this all day, get to 400k and have to grind it all back ..." Negreanu sighed as he sunk back into his chair. After mulling it over for another thirty seconds, he let go and was left with one big blind.

In the very next hand, Negreanu was all-in from the cutoff via the open raise and Becker called out of the big blind.

He was about to grab his selfie stick to record the action but his assistant was already there as the cards were exposed.

Daniel Negreanu:
Johannes Becker:

"Alright, we go for the low and they go for the high," Negreanu mentioned for his upcoming vlog. There was not much help on the flop but the turn was huge for Negreanu. He asked for another low card and that indeed came but it was the river that paired the board.

Negreanu grabbed his equipment and joked "selfie stick in hand just to be safe" before heading to the rail, while Becker raked in the pot with a chuckle.
