Throwback Hands: Daniel Negreanu Stuck In a Battle of Words

Another fun round of “Throwback Hands” hits THE VAULT today with Daniel Negreanu the subject of this week’s experiment. Negreanu is an expert in table talk and finds his match in recreational player Ken Light.

Now available on PokerGO is a battle of words with Negreanu on the rare defensive against a new opponent.

The action gets to the river and Light throws in a sizable bet that gives Negreanu pause about his next move. Light starts the verbal sparring to combat against Negreanu’s full questionnaire. The amateur confuses Negreanu to the point where Negreanu asks Light to stop speaking to him so he can figure out the hand.

The tables officially turn on Negreanu and it’s all of his years of skill to figure out what Light is up to. Light’s grin tells the whole story of how proud he is to put Negreanu in this terrible spot.
