Hu Confuses Table, Busts
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Hassan Dahmani limped in under the gun. Lucien Cohen raised to 3,600 in the hijack. The action folded to Ladislao Dalfo in the small blind, but big blind Zhewen Hu raised to 21,000 out of turn.
It was explained to Dalfo that Hu's raise would stand unless he changed the action. Dalfo opted to call, making Hu's raise valid. It then folded back to Dalfo, who jammed all in, after which Hu made a quick call for 25,000 total.
Zhewen Hu: J♥J♦ 
Ladislao Dalfo: A♠A♦
The 2♠10♠7♣2♥3♦ board helped neither player. Dalfo's aces held as Hu quickly headed to the exit.
