Ben Lamb Stacks Daniel Negreanu: $285,000 Pot
There is a straddle and re-straddle to $1,600. Charles makes a loose UTG raise with 8♥5♥, Daniel flats from the Button with 10♠9♠, before Ben Lamb 3-bets to $19,000 from the small blind with Q♥Q♦. Only Daniel calls. Pot Size: $45,200
Heads-up to an action flop of Q♠6♠9♥, which gives Ben Lamb Top Pair and DNegs, who has only $119K behind, middle pair plus flush draw.
Lamb bets $17,500, Negreanu shoves for $119,000 total and Ben snap-calls with the Nuts. Pot Size: $285,000
They Run It Twice:
- 1st Runout: Brings a 10♣ and a 9♣ securing Ben the first half of the Pot.
- 2nd Runout: Daniel needs a spade, but no help on the 7♣ turn and 4♥ river.
That’s it for Daniel, who leaves the table after this hand, while Ben Lamb wins a huge $285,000 Pot.
Charles Semi-Bluffs DNegs of A Chop: $191,900 Pot
Unfortunately for Daniel Negreanu, he was also on the losing end of the second biggest pot of High Stakes Poker Season 1o Episode 17.
The $800 straddle is on again and Stanley Choi makes it $4,000 to go from Under The Gun with J♦1o♦ and gets four callers. Two of them being DNegs with QJ and Charles with Q♥J♥. Pot Size: $16,400
4-way to a very interesting flop of 6♣9♣10♥, giving the preflop raiser Choi Top Pair, while both DNegs and Charles pick up an Open-Ended Straight Draw. Yu checks, but Daniel leads out for $5,000 and Stanley and Charles both just call. Pot Size: $31,400
The 5♥ on the turn is a very nice card for Charles, who now has a flush draw to go alongside his OESD. He checks and Negreanu now bets almost pot with his Open-Ender. Stanley Choi folds his Top Pair, but Charles check-raises All-in for $130,000 with his combo draw. Pot Size: $191,900
DNegs has to call $100,000 to win $191,600. However, there are two flush draws out there, which means Negreanu can’t call here with his Straight Draw and gets blown off his hand due to a nice play by Charles, who wins a large $191,600 Pot with a great semi-bluff.
That’s All Folks for High Stakes Poker Season 10
