Lu Is Afraid, But Need Not Be
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
In an already sizable pot, Steve Lu had put a bet of 7,000 out from the cutoff on a board of 3♣Q♣4♥5♥, which Shota Nakanishi had raised to 20,000. "Just call," announced Lu.
The river fell the A♠ and both players checked to a showdown. Nakanishi tabled 5♦4♠ for two pair, but Lu was sitting on top set with Q♥Q♦.
"I was scared you had seven-six," Lu explained while he stacked his newly acquired chips.
