Li Hits Draw to Double Up
Level 23
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Yingui Li limped in from the small blind and Shaun Deeb checked in the big blind. The flop fell 8♠2♠6♥ and Li continued with a bet of 300,000.
Deeb raised to 750,000, after which Li jammed all in for 3,250,000 chips. Deeb immediately called and the cards were tabled.
Yingui Li: 5♥4♥
Shaun Deeb: 8♣2♦
Li was in rough shape with a double-gutshot straight draw against the two pair of Deeb, but the 7♦ turn saw him make his straight. The 3♣ river failed to bring Deeb a full house, and Li raked in the double-up to become second in the chip counts.
