Default Daniel Negreanu\'s explanation.

I happened to be in e-mail correspondence with DN about another matter when I read this, so I chanced my arm and asked him for his comments.

Here's the reason:

"They must have missed Doyle's comment that my call was automatic.

I had 16K invested in the BB and the antes were 4K. There was already 52K in the pot when Doyle raised.

I had only 99K total so I had to call 83K to win 250K.

It's an automatic call with even a bad hand."

Thanks for that information.

Wow, that is a lot of dead money. I don't know the positions, but if this is blind versus blind and Negreanu has to call with bad hands (not quite down to 32o here), Brunson should get get involved with hands that are worse than 50% against random hands in order to get a share of the dead money. I would guess QJs is a favorite over the range of hands Brunson should play.
