Negreanu Finds a Double

Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

From the hijack seat, Daniel Negreanu raised to 52,000 before action folded to Paul Phua in the small blind and he asked how much Negreanu had. Negreanu said he had 620,000 total and Phua said he would like to raise to that amount. He made it 620,000 and Negreanu thought for a minute before calling all in.

Negreanu: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Phua: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

The flop, turn and river ran out {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{2-Clubs}{K-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Negreanu won the pot to double up. He moved back to nearly 1.3 million while Phua was knocked down to 226,000.
