and Doug Baughman held the Q

. The flop was the definition of an action flop, bringing the K
J
3
. Negreanu and Baughman both checked after the flop, and Baruch bet from the button. Negreanu reraised, and Baughman moved all-in with both an open ended straight draw and a flush draw. Negreanu called, and the race was on. The K
on the turn took away some of Baughman's outs, because the ace that would complete his straight would give Negreanu a full house. Baughman still had numerous outs, however. The 2
was not one of them. Negreanu won with trip kings, and eliminated Baughman in seventh place. Baughman will take home $15,971. Negreanu now has a dramatic chip lead, with around $900,000.
