Daniel “Hellmuth-Killer Killer” Negreanu bateu Eric Persson no formato que o Poker Brat dominou nas primeiras edições. Após a derrota, Persson socorreu-se das redes sociais para parabenizar o adversário e avisar que não estará disponível para a Ronda 2. Sem Persson depois da HSD 4 R1, quem será o próximo adversário de Negreanu na Ronda 2?

Phil Hellmuth, Tom Dwan, Jason Koon e agora Daniel Negreanu são os jogadores que podem acrescentar ao currículo uma vitória High Stakes Duel, formato de heads-up da PokerGO. A HSD 4 R1 colocou Daniel Negreanu em frente de Eric Persson e abaixo estão alguns dos melhores momentos:

Highlight 2

A nasty runout earns @RealKidPoker another big pot against @IAmMaverick888.

Persson flops open-ended and turns a flush draw against Negreanu’s set.

The river gives Persson a no-good two pair, and Negreanu extends his lead.

A conclusão faz Daniel Negreanu continuar e, como já mencionamos acima, Eric Persson abandonar após a realização do HSD4 R1:

I enjoyed the match Eric and sorry to hear there won’t be a rematch

I guess that means… seat open for who’s next?

I believe the rules state that a challenger must step up in the next 30 days and I imagine there will be a line 😂 https://t.co/b7P4e6xlS3
