Negreanu's Unlucky Exit in the Super High Roller Bowl on Omaha
One of the most prestigious and expensive events for pot-limit Omaha fans is currently taking place in Las Vegas. This is the Super High Roller Bowl PLO with a huge $100,000 buy-in. The most famous Canadian player, Daniel Negreanu, did not manage to achieve a successful result in this tournament. He was eliminated on the money bubble of the event, not long lasting in the top 5 of the chip count.
Negreanu hasn't been doing too well at the poker tables lately. He recently reneged on a heads-up deal and lost a title, and in early October, he lost a painful bad beat in the much more expensive $300,000 Super High Roller Bowl event.
In his last hand in the PLO version of SHRB, the Canadian played against American Jared Bleznick. After catching a set of sixes on the flop, Daniel faced his opponent's set of jacks. Negreanu still had outs left to win, but...

At the time of this hand, only 7 of 38 players were left in the prestigious event. $1,292,000 in prize money awaits the winner.
Interestingly, the chip leader in the final is Isaac Haxton, who a couple of weeks ago won a similar NLH tournament for $300,000. If the American succeeds this time as well, he will be able to set a new record in the history of the Super High Roller Bowl.
