Typical garbage raise from the cutoff for Negreanu as he feels that he can play anything from the cutoff and button because he saw an online winner do it once. Galfond makes a very loose call, but with the implied odds to get paid off since Negreanu is a mega station and for how deep the two are, I do not blame him at all. Seiver calls for the same reasons basically

Scott Seiver: checks

Phil Galfond: calls $3000
Scott Seiver: folds
Seems pretty standard so far. Negreanu getting value from possible 2nd pair type hands Galfond might have. Not really any draws you can flat with profitably here, so it is expected that Negreanu will slow down and play his hand as a bluff catcher
Turn (Pot : $0)
Daniel Negreanu: checks
Phil Galfond: bets $7000
Daniel Negreanu: calls $7000
Weird spot for Negreanu, as Galfond should be checking behind with K's, any weird 3rd pair type hand, etc . When Galfond bets, I see him as polarizing his range to either an ace+ or complete air. However, air makes no sense as Galfond would typically not 100% air float with Seiver in the hand to act behind him. Seeing as this board has only gutshots to draw to, I feel Negreanu can at most call one more bet, and even that is pushing it a little.
Daniel Negreanu: checks
Phil Galfond: bets $15,500
Daniel Negreanu: Time bank is enabled ....
Daniel Negreanu: calls $15,500
Showdown
Phil Galfond: shows  Two pair, Kings and Eights}
Daniel Negreanu: mucks
You know Negreanu is known for some really bad calls, but this one is just outstandingly horrific . After Galfond bets, he puts him on either QJ or air. Out of all the common two pair possibilities, better ace hands, sets, etc . Negreanu puts him SOLELY on QJ, or A 100% COMPLETE AIR FLOAT THAT DECIDED TO DOUBLE BARREL A STATION THAT LED INTO 2 OTHER PEOPLE. WHAT IN THE FUCK IS GOING THROUGH THIS MANS HEAD?!
He looks at his hand, knows he beats NOTHING BUT A COMPLETE BLUFF, and decides 'I think I am good here a high enough % of the time to make this call.'
