Negreanu Not a Fan of Hellmuth's Entrance
Daniel Negreanu made it 1,500,000 from the button and Artur Martirosian called from the big bind. It checked through to the river for the board to read 4♣4♥3♠K♣Q♠. Martirosian bet 1,200,000 and Negreanu folded.
Martirosian raised to 1,500,000 from the button and Negreanu folded.
A third pot went Martirosian's way. In a limped pot that checked through to showdown, Martirosian's K♠6♣5♠4♦ was good for two pair on the 10♠7♥5♥A♥4♥ board.
There was a small disturbance with Phil Hellmuth's Main Event entrance. A railbird asked Negreanu to get it on the vlog, but Negreanu piped back saying, "I'm too busy winning!"
And that helped momentum swing back in Negreanu's favor.
Negreanu checked in the big blind after Martirosian limped in. Negreanu led out for 1,000,000 on the K♥9♦8♥ flop and took down the pot.
In another limped pot to the J♠6♥3♦ flop, Martirisian check-called for 800,000. The 7♥ turn checked through to the 2♣ river. Martirosian bet 2,000,000 and was quickly called.
Martirosian had sevens and sixes, but it was no good. Negreanu had a set of three with Q♣4♥3♠3♣ to drag in the chips.
