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 Had the nuts till the turn, and then that river eight, destroyed everything You can clearly see the change on his mood when he sees that eight
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
Posted by sammybeyo: Wow that's an amazing laydown by one of the poker greats hard to laydown a straight he is one of the best readers 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.

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.
Posted by T3ddyKGB: 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
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.

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.
