High Stakes Poker – Kk V 99
400/800 online poker match,
Daniel Negreanu raises to 2500. (Ad 7d) Doyle calls (Kd Kc).
Eli raises to 13,300 (9s 9h) Doyle fiddles with his casino chips and takes a little time. Eli says, “You limp with Kings again?”
Doyle puts Eli all-in and Eli calls ($95,000).
Doyle offers to run it twice and Eli accepts. The first board blanks both players and KK holds, and the second board comes with 4 hearts to make Eli the flush to his 9h. They split the pot.
Eli then decides to buy in for another hundred, I guess because he felt he was too short to play correctly.
Later eastgate through in a bet of $32,000 on the flop into a pot of $13,600. He was betting 2nd pair in a 4-way pot and Negreanu said out loud that he thought Eastgate chose the wrong color poker chips and this prompted Eli to raise to $140,000 with bottom pair and a flush draw. This is a tough scenario for Eastgate, and had me wondering whether or not he could play this out well. To the looks of it, he looked beat. As expected, Eastgate folded and said, “It cost me $25,000″. Did Negreanu talk out of turn?
