Big Call From Baker

Livello 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 60,000 ante

Alex Livingston raised the button to 90,000 and got called by David "ODB" Baker in the big blind.

Baker took one card and Livingston stood pat.

Baker checked over to Livingston who tossed out a bet of 400,000. Baker, seemingly not a fan of the bet, entered a short tank.

As he thought about his action, he said, "I was going to check-raise you but you be so damn much" before eventually deciding to toss in a call which got an immediate, "Good call. You win" from Livingston.

Baker showed 8x7x6x4x2x to make it official as Livingston tossed his cards in the muck and Baker collected the pot.

Daniel Negreanu Eliminated in 5th Place ($81,751)

Livello 21 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 45,000 ante

Chris Brewer raised to 60,000 from the cutoff and faced a three-bet from Daniel Negreanu in the small blind to 225,000.

Alex Livingston paused in the big blind before announcing a four-bet to 625,000. Brewer quickly folded to put action back on Negreanu.

After verifying the size of the raise and quickly getting a count of his own chips, Negreanu looked at the dealer and said, "All in".

Livingston quickly called for not much more and both players stood pat to get to showdown as the decidedly pro-Negreanu rail also came to their feet.

Negreanu turned over 9♠8♦6♠4♠2♣ but quickly saw that he was second best to Livingston's 8♠7♥6♣5♥3♠ as his run at winning his seventh career bracelet comes to a close in fifth place for $81,751.
