Daniel Negreanu raised on the button and Steve Landfish three-bet from the small blind. Negreanu made the call and then proceeded to call bets from Landfish on every street as the board ran out .
Landfish rolled for queens and tens, and Negreanu wasn't happy. He shot up, tipping his chair on the ground, and slammed his Beats headphones on the ground. Pieces from the headphones flew as the tournament floor grew eerily quiet. It was clear Negreanu was extremely frustrated. Regardless, Negreanu remained silent as he picked up his chair and rejoined the game.
A few hands later Negreanu lost another pot to Landfish and dropped to just 27,000.
It took us a while to figure out but it turns out that Dan Idema, last year`s second place finisher, is still in this event and alive and kicking with 200,000. We will definitely keep an eye on him to see if he can improve on last year`s performance and win the bracelet.
