Li Eliminates Rheem After Catching Bluff in Huge Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Chino Rheem raised to 35,000 first-to-act and was three-bet by Yingui Li to 110,000 from directly behind. Action folded back to Rheem, who called.
Both players checked on the 6♦2♣6♥ flop and Rheem checked again on the 8♣ turn. Li bet 100,000 and Rheem called.
The J♥ completed the board and Rheem checked again. Li fired 280,000 into the middle and Rheem used up a few time extensions before announcing he was all in for 860,000 total.
Li went into the tank, but eventually put in a single chip to indicate a call. Rheem could only turn over 5♣5♦, which was no good against the K♦K♥ of Li to eliminate Rheem and send the massive pot Li’s way.
