Samson Snaps Off Lu to Double in a Massive Pot
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Shyamsundar Challa raised to 40,000 in early position and Daniel Samson called in the small blind. Yang Lu then three-bet to 160,000 in the big blind and only Samson called.
Both players checked the 4♦2♣2♦ flop. The turn was the 5♣ and Lu bet 200,000. Samson then raised to 450,000, Lu moved all in, and Samson snap-called for 755,000.
Lu showed J♣J♥, but Samson had 5♥5♦ for a turned full house as the A♦ fell on the river to earn Samson the massive double up.
