It was another close call for Daniel Negreanu on Tuesday after he final tabled Event #30: $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw Championship, along with former pro hockey player Greg Mueller. The pair bagged some big cashes for Canada on what was a relatively slow day for Canadian bags and money spots.
That said, the day wasn’t devoid of Canuck results. In addition to the scores in the big deuce game, Matthew Morin and Shawn Buchanan both put in final table performances in Event #31: $800 No-Limit Hold’em Deepstack, with Morin coming 3rd and “Bucky” in 4th. Both players bagged scores of more than $100k.
They led 11 cashers in that one, while 6 Canadians pulled money out of Event #33: $1,500 Limit Hold’em and another 13 found some cash in Event #34: $1,500 Super Turbo Bounty. Among the notables in E34 were his & hers cashes for the Taylors, with Haven scoring biggest at 92nd, versus Thomas in 251st.
Meanwhile, in the bag department, Kristen Foxen continued her run of stacking chips, and this time, she’s doing it in a lower-priced game. She bagged for 15th place in Event #35: $3,000 Freezeout No-Limit Hold’em, which is a significantly cheaper buy-in than the $25k games she was playing on the weekend. Quebec’s Ian Monahoyios also grabbed a bag in that one.
Finally, the $10k PLO8 Championship saw some familiar maple flavour. FLO8 bracelet winner Calen McNeil leads 5 Canadians with chips left, with Daniel Negreanu, Ari Engel, Thomas Taylor, and Canada’s lone bracelet winner so far this year, Zach Zaret, joining McNeil for Day 2.
