Everyone's a Comedian!

Daniel Negreanu is in a joking mood.
Daniel Negreanu is in a joking mood.
The new table of comedy is Table 244. Daniel Negreanu recently ran out of the room at full speed to use the bathroom. He came running back in time not to miss the next hand.

"Did you wash your hands?" Shawn Sheikhan asked.

"Yep! They're all wet," replied Negreanu.

"Prove it to us," Matt Glantz dared him. "Lick your hands."

After the laughs died down, Negreanu completed a {K-Hearts} and was called by an older player named Freddie Ellis who had the {J-Diamonds}. Ellis took over the betting lead the rest of the way, drawing a board of (X-X) / {J-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {3-Diamonds} / (X). Negreanu's board came (X-X) / {K-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {4-Spades} {5-Diamonds} / (X).

At the river, Elllis peeked at his cards, then said, "I'm gonna respect you and check."

"I gotta see what I've got," replied Negreanu.

"Be careful even if you've got something."

Negreanu looked at his own river card, then said, "Well this is probably stupid but I'm gonna bet."

"I call," said Ellis.

"Kings up."

"Kings and jacks," Ellis announced proudly.

"I know," Negreanu replied sheepishly. "That's why it was stupid."
