However, he decides to check as Negreanu raises by 150,000 which is re-raised to 550,000 and gets a call from Negreanu. The 4 ♣ on the river boosts Smiljkovic’s chances of winning over 90% with only a Queen of any suite left for Negreanu to get a straight and have a better hand than his opponent. 

Smiljkovic pushed 1.3M chips into the pot which saw DNegs move all-in. He received a snap call from Smiljkovic as both the players waited for the river.

It is also worth noting that Negreanu managed to register a big double at the event where he fared well against his old rival Justin Bonomo by finding a King to win the classic flip. It also propelled Negreanu into the second chip lead position after winning the hand while Bonomo failed to make it count when it mattered. You can check out the hand below. 

Big double for @RealKidPoker through @JustinBonomo as Negreanu finds a king to win the classic flip.

Negreanu moves into second in chips while Bonomo drops to just a handful of big blinds.
