Super High Roller Bowl V: Daniel Negreanu Shockingly Folds a Straight, but was Right in Doing So

Tags: Daniel Negreanu, high stakes, Super High Roller Bowl.
Posted on 20 December 2018 by "T".

From December 17-19, 2018, the biggest week in the history of PokerGO continues with the Super High Roller Bowl V, a high-stakes tournament with a buy-in of $300,000.

It was Day 1 of the Super High Roller Bowl V hosted by PokerGO that 44-year-old Daniel Negreanu made a remarkable move when battling against Belarusian crusher Mikita Badziakouski.

Negreanu got J-10
Badziakouski got a pair of 9s
The flop showed 8-6-7...

 

He sensed something is not right even though he's gotten a straight on the turn, plus he sees his opponent bet 60,000 on the river. After much contemplation and he reasoned out loud that Badziakouski may have a full house, the Canadian poker pro folded. It turns out his intuition was right.

 

Daniel Negreanu is known for his expert reads, but this is next level even for "Kid Poker!" Watch this amazing Super High Roller Bowl V lay down and then watch the rest of the $300,000 buy-in event LIVE on PokerGO!


 

Unfortunately for Kid Poker, he was stopped on the bubble when Stephen Chidwick sent him to the rail.

This guy really is a special player and he keeps on making the correct reads. I do not think that many players could have got away from this hand but, Daniel Negreanu, is not 'many' players

We have seen some great reads in the past from negreanu. and this was just
another one Smile
Had the nuts till the turn, and then that river eight, destroyed everything Smile
You can clearly see the change on his mood when he sees that eight Smile

Negreanu of course. A great poker player ... there is no doubt .... it's that he did it. His power of the game is enough to show ... But he doesn’t always demonstrate a great game .... but it’s probably impossible .... once there should be recessions once ups .... now apparently he has a good streak in the game

Is not that hard to lay down a straight when this many possibilities are on the table, he was right - there were to many hands which could have beat him right on the spot.

nope, doesnt impressive me as well to lay down a straight. bet ordinary playes have done that as well some times. we are just not as cool as daniel Big Smile
 Gerimantas21/12/2018 10:52:33 GMT
I not know personally if this is good situation to lay the straight because also there are many hands that you can beat ajd opponent can easy have a pair of kings or queens and you win hand. You cannot think all time that your opponent have nuts

At the time of the turn, Daniel Negreanu was happy and when the river came the situation has changed.
There were a few moments when he did not laugh and after that, the bet of Badziakouski has changed everything.
Most players notice a full house after that bet.
What bothers me at Daniel Negreanu is his gestures and he talk too much but he is a huge player. Smile

Nor rich as him. Somebody with a wallet as deep as his could have a luxury to make -EV decisions but good to know he still have a great head to figure things out.

Daniel's read is one of the best I have ever seen as mentioned above he did folded stronger hands before and he was right to do so... He is not the best player for nothing.

 CALICUL25/12/2018 16:16:14 GMT
He's definitely a big player but in the last year he has no good results.
It is not in shape and does not manage to earn large amounts of money.
His concentration has fallen sharply and he will have to do more to win a WSOP tournament or something big.
Let's hope he can do this quickly. Cool
