Negreanu Fighting Back
Action folded to a short-stacked Daniel Negreanu in the cutoff and he just limped. Mike "Timex" McDonald then limped from the small blind, Micah Smith checked his option from the big, and it was three-handed action to the 
flop.
Two checks put action on Negreanu, and he opted to move all in for 1,400 of his remaining 1,500. McDonald quickly got out of the way, and Smith made a very reluctant raise. Negreanu committed his last 100 and the cards were turned over.
| Showdown |
Negreanu:     |
Smith:     |
Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped Smith and Negreanu took down the pot with queens and nines.
