Kornuth Busts Negreanu
Level 8
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Chance Kornuth opened to 26,000 on the button and Talal Shakerchi called in the small blind before Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 127,000 in the big blind. Kornuth responded with a four-bet to around 500,000 and Shakerchi folded as Negreanu pulled out the selfie stick.
"This is an interesting spot," he told his vlog viewers. "I call."
Daniel Negreanu: A?Q?
Chance Kornuth: Q?Q?
"I was hoping he'd have jacks!" Negreanu said when he saw he was in bad shape.
The runout of 3?6?10?4?3? was no help to Negreanu and he was eliminated on his second bullet as Day 1 closes out.
"Boom! Dead. GG guys," Negreanu said as he left.
