Daniel Negreanu Reviews 'High Stakes Poker' Hand with Doyle Brunson
Daniel Negreanu continues to share various types of poker strategy advice over on , lately incorporating some earlier analyses of memorable hands he's played over the years.
Last week Negreanu dug into his archives to share an interesting breakdown of a hand he played versus Doyle Brunson on High Stakes Poker — one that occurred during Season 1 of the popular series and aired during early 2006.
Brunson opened the action with a early-position raise and Negreanu defended his small blind with a call after being dealt 8♠8♥. The flop then fell K♠8♣3♣, giving Negreanu a set.
Negreanu checked and Brunson bet, and Negreanu talks a lot about the board texture and possible hands Brunson could have as he explains his decision to check-raise.
Brunson then surprisingly pushed all in, and while Negreanu discusses the possibility that Brunson could have him beat, he understandably called with his middle set. As it happened, Brunson had A♠A♥ and Negreanu ended up winning a $352,700 pot.
Negreanu comes back afterwards to add a few more comments, including how Brunson played the hand and how Negreanu's hand range might have appeared following his check-raise.
