Negreanu Proposes Changes to the Poker Hall of Fame Induction Process

Nível 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

With its ever-growing backlog of deserving players and industry professionals waiting for their time to be inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame, some players are calling for changes to the nomination and induction process.

One of those players is Daniel Negreanu, poker's biggest ambassador and himself a member of the Poker Hall of Fame who was inducted in 2014. Negreanu has long called for overhauls to the Poker Hall of Fame nomination process and renewed his calls this week on his daily vlog during the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

"How I would fix the Hall of Fame is this: every single year, two players get in — players, not contributors," Negreanu told his vlog viewers. "Every single year, two players get in. Every third year ... we add an additional third person who is a contributor to the game. That would be the Isai Scheinbergs and the Matt Savages of the world. Every three years, one of them would get in. That way, we don't have to constantly compare apples to oranges."

Stanislav Halatenko opened preflop action by betting 750,000 from the hijack holding K♠Q♠7♣6♠. Lou Garza, the big blind, came along with J♦9♥8♠5♥.

Garza checked the 9♣8♥Q♣ flop. Halatenko led out for 425,000 and was called.

The turn was the 8♦, and Garza checked with eights full. Halatenko led out for 950,000, unknowingly drawing dead. Garza considered his next move for a minute, and made the call.

The A♥ arrived on the river, and Garza checked once more. Halatenko checked behind, denying Garza a bit of extra value but still awarding him a nice-sized pot.

Nível 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Stanislav Halatenko raised to 750,000 with the A♥10♠10♥5♦ and it folded to Lou Garza in the big blind, who defended the Q♠J♥J♦5♥. The Q♣6♦2♠ flop increased Garza's lead and he checked. Halatenko bet 600,000 and Garza called before they checked the K♦ on the turn.

Garza made trips queens with the Q♦ river and he gave it some thought before betting 800,000. Halatenko didn't believe him and paid to get shown the bad news.
