Wai and Boi Wage War Postflop

With the average stack being just over 20 big blinds, most pots are taken down preflop, either by raises or three-bets. However, Paolo Boi and Sim Kok Wai played one of the few postflop hands when Wai made it 500,000 from the hijack and Boi defended his big blind.

The flop saw 5♣7♠9♦ hit the felt and Boi checked to Wai, who put in a continuation-bet of another 500,000. Boi had some tricks up his sleeve though, as he put in the check-raise to 1,450,000. Wai put in the million owed and the two went to the turn.

The 9♥ paired the board and saw Boi revert to checking again. Wai retook the betting lead by announcing ''all-in'', covering Boi's 2,200,000 remaining chips. Boi did not spend much time thinking about the situation as he quickly let his hand go, leaving himself nine big blinds behind.

Wai, on the other hand, is flourishing on the final table and is playing a stack of roughly nine million chips.
