Fedor Holz Eliminated by Daniel Negreanu
The flop was [qc][9h][2h] and Fedor Holz had 30,000 out in front of him. Holz was in the big blind and Daniel Negreanu raised to 100,000 from under the gun.
“I committed him,” said Negreanu. “He’s only got about 240,000, so I make it 100,000 and it’s the same thing as moving it all in. Because I can’t fold for 100,000.”
“Then why not move all in?” asked Dan Cates.
“I don’t know,” said Negreanu with a laugh.
Holz moved all in for 240,000 and Negreanu called. Negreanu showed [as][qh] and needed help against Holz’s [qc][2c]. The turn was the [7s] and the river was the [7h]. Negreanu counterfeited Holz’s two pair and won the pot to eliminate Holz.
