Lu Left With a Single Chip
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Henry Jia Hao Lu bet 20,000 on a flop of Q♠K♣7♦ and Robert Burlacu called.
The turn was a 3♥ which saw Lu fire another bet of 31,000, which Burlacu called again.
When the 4♦ fell on the river, Lu checked it over to his opponent, and Burlacu slid forward a bet of 160,000, leaving himself just 17,000 chips behind.
"Why do I put you on jack-ten?" remarked Lu during his four-minute tank.
Eventually, Lu shoved all in for 178,000, and Burlacu called.
Burlacu tabled K♦J♣ for top pair which was the winner as Lu showed he had made a light call down with A♦4♠ for a rivered pair of fours.
