Morgan Over Xu in Five-Bet Pot
Level 4
: 200/400, 50 ante
According to Jack Sinclair, action went crazy preflop between Liang Xu in late position and Benjamin Morgan in the small blind. Xu opened for 1,000, Morgan made it 3,000, Xu came back with 9,000 and Morgan fired in 20,000. Xu called and then called 20,000 more on 
. Both checked the 
and Morgan jammed on the 
river.
Xu went into the tank awhile before deciding to fold. He said afterward he had only ace-high but almost called.
"Ace-high?!" said a shocked Morgan with a smile. "I'm not gonna bluff you again."
