WSOPE Main Event Final Table: Negreanu and Alekhin Clash

WSOPE Main Event Final Table: Negreanu and Alekhin Clash

Thursday, 2 October 2008

There you go, the Bluff Europe jinx strikes again as Negreanu loses a sizeable pot against Stanislav Alekhin.

Finally, the place livened up for a moment. Alekhin's opening raise from the cut-off was met by a reraise by Negreanu on the button, who made it 154,000 to go. A smooth call by the Russian, and we're off to a flop.

The first three out are the Qd-7s-5d, and that's as far as this hand is going: Alekhin moves all in on the flop, Negreanu grimaces a little, shrugs, and folds. Momentum back to the Anti-Bomber, and it looks like the dinner break in 25 minutes or so could be just the tonic for Kid Poker.
