Level 26 : 300,000/600,000, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Daniel Negreanu limped in from the button before Bryce Yockey raised to 550,000 in the small blind. Chris Brewer called in the big blind, while Negreanu also came along to see the 10?5?3? flop.

Yockey then bet 600,000 and Brewer raised to 2,300,000, leaving himself 325,000 behind. Negreanu tanked for a minute before folding, while Yockey quickly moved all in and Brewer committed his last chips.

Chris Brewer: A?A? All in
Bryce Yockey: J?10?

Brewer was ahead with his pair of aces, while Yockey had a pair and flush draw. "I had queen-ten of clubs. What a fold. That's how we do. We know what's up. This ain't my first rodeo," Negreanu said as all three players got up from their seats.

The turn was the 7? to complete Yockey's flush and Brewer was already drawing dead. The start-of-day chip leader had to settle for third place, while Yockey and Negreanu went on a short break before beginning heads-up play.
