Lu Applies the Pressure

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Daniel Lu was in the cutoff and opened to 10,000. Brian Carrubba defended his big blind and proceeded to check dark before the flop came {q-Hearts}{k-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Lu made a continuation-bet of 18,000 and Carrubba called.

The turn came {2-Diamonds} and Carrubba checked again. Lu made another bet of 70,000, putting Carrubba to a decision for a significant chunk of the 180,000 he still had in front of him. He thought for close to two minutes, counting out his orange T5,000 chips in the process.

Eventually, he folded and Lu took down the pot, adding to his already chip-leading stack along the way.
