Hu-ge Double-Up
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Kaihung Hu initiated the action with a raise to 110,000 from the cutoff. Dae Woong Song, seated on the button, responded with a three-bet to 310,000. Hu then went all in, and Song quickly called.
Kaihung Hu: 8♠8♥
Dae Woong Song: A♣K♣
The flop appeared favorable for Hu with 6♥2♠9♥. Song needed an ace or king, but the 7♥ on the turn didn’t help him.
A brief moment of confusion arose on the river when the A♥ appeared, giving Song a pair of aces. However, with four hearts on the board, Hu secured a flush, allowing him to double up his already substantial stack.
