Negreanu Overbets and Gets Paid

Daniel Negreanu opened to 5,000 first to act and was called by [Removed:554] in the small blind and Christopher Nguyen in the big blind.

On the J♥8♣4♠ flop, the action checked to Negreanu who continued for 5,000 and only [Removed:555] called.

[Removed:555] checked again to Negreanu on the J♣ turn as he fired for 15,000 and [Removed:555] stuck around once more.

On the 2♣ river, Negreanu tossed out a bet of 60,000, slightly overbetting the pot, and [Removed:555] paid it off rather quickly.

"Full house," Negreanu announced as he tabled 8♠8♦ for a flopped set and turned full house as he got paid to become the chipleader early in the day.
