Gift of Chips for Bryan Huang
Team PokerStars Pro Bryan Huang is now far and away the chip leader after a big preflop battle saw almost 150 big blinds in the middle.
Generally in this situation it's a predictable pocket aces vs. kings.
Almost, but not quite.
We arrived at the table with Huang having six-bet an extra 66,200.
According to tablemate Ash Warner, the action prior to this point began with Huang opening to 2,700 which was three-bet to 6,600 by Ronald Bean on Huang's direct left. The action flew back around to Huang and he four-bet to around 13,000. Bean then five-bet to around 26,000 and this is when Huang moved all in for the extra 66,200.
Bean called, having a little more behind, and watched as Huang tabled .
Then Bean turned over his .
Huang got out of his chair and with a wry smile as if expecting the worst watched as the dealer spread out a board.
All was safe and the gigantic pot went to Huang.
