Head Hunter champ Anh scalps Le’s head


Looks like Nam Le will call it an early day. From the hi-jack position, Le raised to 350 and found a caller from the button but faced a re-raise of 1850 from the small blind, Do Hoang Anh, the champion in yesterday’s Head Hunter side event.

Le responded with 3-bet for all of his chips or an additional 7,200 and Anh gamely made the call.

Le’s A K trailed Anh’s pocket 10s and needed an ace or king to survive Day 1A. The flop 7 J 2 did not have the overcard he was looking for and the turn 2 and river Q did not cooperate either.

Le is out today but can still come back tomorrow for Day 1B as players busted out in Day 1A can re-enter.
