Motion started with “TCCWang” elevating from a center place to 2.3 large blinds. Negreanu referred to as in late place with 9â™ 9♦, as did “Be Myself” on the button and “joyeux” within the small blind. “Erlango,” the second greatest stack on the desk with 115 large blinds, three-bet it to 16.5 large blinds.
“What’s taking place right here? We acquired a squeeze?” Negreanu contemplated whereas the unique preflop raiser folded. “Large blind squeezed. This is similar man who did that with king-queen earlier. I am simply going to jam.”
Negreanu did transfer all in, which compelled the button and small blind to fold. “Erlango,” who booked a seventh place end for $86,108 within the $300 Gladiators of Poker occasion earlier within the sequence, then went into the tank for a bit.
“He is tanking, that is good, except he is slowrolling us,” Negreanu advised his viewers whereas his opponent contemplated a call.
Because it turned out, the larger stack was both slowrolling the poker legend or was preoccupied with one thing else. However a name was ultimately made with Okay♦Okay♣.
“What did you tank for?” Negreanu laughed. “He slowrolled me.”
The flop got here out 5♣10♦6♣, no assist to the 50-year-old “Child Poker.” However the 9♣ on the flip gave Negreanu a set, placing him approach out in entrance … till the J♣ on the river gave “Erlango” a successful flush.
