Makkar Gets One Through?

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Daniel Negreanu raised to 3,000 in middle position and was called by Rishi Makkar, directly to his left. The player in the high jack then squeezed to 11,000. It appeared that the dealer pulled in the blinds, as Negreanu called out of turn before realizing that the player in the blind was still debating their decision. It's possible Negreanu's mistake affected the blind's decision, as he eventually settled on a call.

Negreanu called officially now, as did the player to his left. Four ways to a flop they saw 8?4?J?. All players checked.

The turn brought the 8? and the small blind checked, as did Negreanu, Makkar then led out for 10,500 and got folds from the table. After they had all mucked, Makkar showed AxJx10x10x with no spades, baffling his opponents.
