Daniel Negreanu reached his third World Series of Poker Online final table in less than a week, this time in the $5,000 High Roller Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha event, which drew 378 entries. Despite the deep run, the Poker Hall of Famer once again fell short of capturing a bracelet.
Negreanu began the final table in fourth place among eight remaining players, holding 35 big blinds. Israeli player Yigal Papi entered as the dominant chip leader with 134 big blinds, setting up a difficult path for Negreanu to navigate.
The GGPoker ambassador got off to a hot start, winning a big pot with pocket aces against Markus Ristola, who missed a strong draw. Ristola was eliminated in seventh place, earning $33,074.
Negreanu’s fortunes soon reversed. He picked up aces again, but this time Anatoly Zlotnikov also held two aces among his four PLO cards and rivered a flush to take the pot, sending Negreanu back to his starting stack.
His run ended shortly after when he flopped two pair but lost his remaining chips to Blaz Zerjav, who flopped a set. Negreanu finished sixth for $43,641 plus roughly $15,000 in bounties, marking his third near-miss at a final table in five days.
Negreanu, who already won his eighth bracelet this summer, was chasing his first online title and a shot at joining the exclusive group of players with nine or more bracelets, including Phil Hellmuth, Shaun Deeb, and Benny Glaser. He is livestreaming his WSOP Online journey from Vancouver, Canada, with Papi still holding a big chip lead as play continues toward a $132,297 first-place prize and bracelet.
