Negreanu Can't Crack Frank's Aces

Martirosian then called in the small blind, and Daniel Negreanu checked his big blind. On the J♥10♥5♥ flop, Martirosian check-called for 400,000 before the 8♠ turn checked through to the 9♠ river. Martirosian bet 1,300,000 and Negreanu folded.
On the next hand, Negreanu limped in from the small blind and Chris Frank checked his big blind. Negreanu check-folded to a bet of 450,000 on the 9♠6♥4♣ flop.
Frank limped in fromt the small blind, but snap-folded when Martirosian made it 1,200,000 from the big blind.
Frank raised to 1,400,000 from the button, and called off his stack of 3,525,000 after Daniel Negreanu repotted from the big blind.
Chris Frank: A♠A♥8♦5♠
Daniel Negreanu: A♦K♥10♦6♥
