It is halfway at Day three, and Daniel Negreanu sits down to his next table with eight racks of chips on his rams slowing him down. Daniel takes a seat with a big lot of 160,000, great for a mid stack at the table, and right away his table lets out a sigh. "This is going to be a really cool and fun night," says the man to Negreanu's left. "Careful Daniel, this is a no fold'em hold'em table, exclaims another." "Yeah, no kidding," Negreanu smirks a little smirk. Confident as always he displays his poker face.
About an hour still to be played before the dinner break, Negreanu sits down and he looks to be focused to establish his early position as the table chief and aggressor. Showing little emotion for his opponent's talks and such, Negreanu challenges the table, open-raising the first eight pots he is dealt pre-flop right before he is done pocketing all of his Aussie Millions load of tokens. He has accumulated over one thousand
five-hundred black hundred dollar chips in the three days, and they cover huge real estate in front of him. Negreanu's day doesn't turn out the way he expects.
Things start out not so good for Negreanu when he takes a medium-sized pot hit to fellow professional poker player Paul Wolfe. Wolfe shows top pair, and
Negreanu simply shakes his head and goes back to his aggressive style the next hand dealt.
Daniel Negreanu still came into trouble as his aggressive style builds big chip counts but loses them as fast. And Daniel Negreanu's style gives him big Swings. |
