Last Night's WPT
 
Bellagio 5 Diamonds.

IMO, one of the best ones in a while. Maybe because Negreanu makes for good TV, maybe having the contrast in his and Hachem's style and personality. I enjoyed it.

And as for the "sick" call Daniel made. With his chip count vs the probable range of the shove, I don't see how he could've folded 2nd nut flush/gut draw and two overs getting just short of 3:1 based on the play of the hand even though the board was QQTx with 3 s.

I never once thought he would fold. Maybe tonight I'll crunch some numbers and see what the odds were against what I would estimate opponent's range was. I suspect it was a little -EV, but not enough to fold based on stack size.

(no spoilers if you haven't seen the hand)

I read the write up in ALL-IN mag. It seemed like a very good final table. It was nice to see Hachem and Negraneau do so well.

I agree, best WPT show in a long time. Considering DN had close to, if not more than, half the chips in play I'm surprised he took so long to call.
