HomeFor the first time today, the big stacks got involved in a pot that grew to quite a hefty pile. Action kicked off with Hung Sheng Lin raising to 95k from the cutoff, button Hele Liu called, then Evgeny Kurilenko three-bet to 335k from the big blind. Action back to Lin, he folded but Liu called.
On the flop 8♦ 4♠ 5♣,Kurilenko continued with a 300k bet, and Liu called. On the Q♠ turn and 10♠ river, no bets were fired and it was showtime. Kurilenko turned over A♦ Q♥ for top pair and Liu folded without showing saying he had pocket jacks.
Liu dropped to 1.7M which is still above average stack. Kurilenko up to 3.1M. Average stack is 1.5M.
