Daniele VS Daniel at 2012 LAPT São Paulo

21/02/2012

Yesterday the PokerStars.net LAPT Grand Final came to its logical conclusion in Sao Paulo, Brazil. As you might remember, it was PokerStars pro Daniel Negreanu by far the marquee name in the tournament and at the final table, coming into the day fifth in chips. When it was set and done, Daniele celebrated the victory, but the champion’s last name was not Negreanu.

 Daniel and this time no luck 

Unfortunately for his numerous fans around the globe, the famous Canadian managed to overcome the Argentinean Juan Gonzalez and Brazilian Vitor Torres to depart in 6th R$48,730 (US$28,125). Down to just 25 blinds, Negreanu bet out and was called by Carlos Ibarra with pocket aces, and as he explained later via twitter: “Out in 6th. Tough spot low on chips QT on T93 flop vs slowplayed AA. Instinct said fold but talked myself into a call since I was short.”

After the elimination of Ibarra in third place, Nestola and Nicolas struck a deal. At the time of the deal, Nestola had 4.405 million in chips to Nicolas' 2.78 million. They both agreed to take R$250,000 each and leave the title along with R$39,300 to play for. From there, things didn't last long at all.

 Daniel Nestola 

On the final hand of the tournament, Nestola raised all in on the turn with the nut straight. Nicolas made the call for all of his chips holding top pair and was drawing stone dead. Nestola knew it and began celebrating with his group of friends, singing along with Queen's "We Are the Champions" at the top of their German lungs. That's what poker does to people. It takes an otherwise stoic nation like Germany and turns its people into passionate, singing, foreign-language-screaming crazies.
