Negreanu 0 for 2
After a disappointing first round exit from the $25,000 Heads-Up Championship yesterday, Daniel Negreanu has now made his exit from the $1500 Omaha Hi-Low Split 8 or Better event today.
After taking Tom Dwan's former seat, Negreanu nursed a short stack for quite a while before officially hitting the rail.
In his bust out hand, which he only started with 600, a player in the cutoff made it 400 getting calls from the small blind, big blind and Daniel in early position.
The flop came and it checked around to the button who bet 200. Daniel called for his remaining 200 as did the player in cutoff.
The turn came and went check check.
The river came and went check check again.
The player on the button flipped over for a rivered two pair much to Negreanu's frustration as he announced, "Ahhh I thought I had a chance, I had ."
Negreanu mucked, paid his masseuse, and left in good spirits.
