Li Cements His Spot at the Top
Level 12
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Jiaze Li opened to 3,500 from early position and the action folded to Ajay Kejriwal in the big blind. Kejriwal shoved all in for 27,500 and confirmed that he had not looked at his cards yet.
"Please call. I either double up or rebuy tomorrow. I haven't even looked yet." Li obliged to put Kejriwal at risk and the cards were tabled.
Ajay Kejriwal: 6♣5♣
Jiaze Li: 9♥8♥
The flop came 6♦4♣4♦ to give Kejriwal the lead with a pair of sixes. However, the 9♦ on the turn put Li back out front. The J♣ on the river was a brick and Li collected another pot before the end of the night.
