"Official" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL

[Clovis8]

Dutch AKA the scmybag thief Boyd is chip leader. Here is hoping he loses all his chips on a one outer.

[Vuron00]

No hand updates, but the chip counts aren't looking good. He needs to make a move.

1Daniel Negreanu$475,000 $85,000

2Russ 'Dutch' Boyd$320,000 $-60,000

3Mirza Nagji$290,000 $70,000

4Peter Hassett$250,000 $130,000

5Joseph Hachem$240,000 $-20,000

6Jeff Knight$170,000 $-150,000

7Zegard Nygaard$110,000 $-15,000

8Michael Goodman$98,000 $-35,000

9David Soloman$90,000

Just doubled up with Q7 vs. 44. No idea how the betting went. At around 180K. Still 9 left.

Sweet.

From the cutt-off position Peter Hassett makes it $18,000 to go, Michael Goodman re-raises all-in for $71,000 more, Hassett calls. Hassett shows pocket 4's, while Goodman is holding Q7. The flop comes 1095, not giving Goodman any help. The turn is the K followed by the J on the river. Goodman hits his straight with running cards and doubles up to $210,000.

Negreanu Throws A Huge Beat Sending Shallow to the Rail
In what could be the most critical hand in today's event, Daniel Negreanu ($154,000) raises to $9,000 and Shallow ($113,000) raises him back in the big blind to $31,000. Negreanu makes the call and both players see the flop of J87. Shallow immediately pushes on the flop for his remaining $82,000. Daniel stands up and begins talking himself through the hand. He wonders aloud if Shallow has Aces, but after Shallow says, "Well, at least now I know I'm ahead...you are taking too long to call." Negreanu responds, "Well, that's definitely going to get you a call, bud," pushing the $82,000 into the pot.

Shallow turns over AA and Negreanu is drawing to five outs with KJ. A 3 leaves Negreanu asking for a King or Jack on the river and when the J hits, Shallow is sent to the rail and the $210,000 pot is shipped to Negreanu who ends the hand with $267,000.

I don't like that call at all.

Just another example of the "awesome" reads the pros make.

If you've watched Negreanu on HSP it seems standard.
