Le's Pressure Bet Gets the Best of Scott

Andrew Scott took a big hit.
Andrew Scott took a big hit.
Andrew Scott has shown that he is not afraid to bring the fire to Nam Le, but Le's also shown he's not afraid to fire back. Le raised the pot preflop to 24,000 and Scott called.

The flop brought all sorts of developing possibilities, {J-Spades} {7-Hearts} {8-Hearts}. Andrew checked to Le, who made it 35,000 to play. With action back on Scott (and without consulting his leg this time), Scott check-raised to 110,000. That raise gave Le some pause, as he studied both the board and his opponent for some sign of what he should do. After a minute of thought, he announced a raise of his own. Eyeing Scott's stack, he made it 360,000 to go, placing the pressure squarely on Scott.

"Do you have a heart draw?" Scott asked. Le remained motionless, offering no response. Scott appeared to come to a decision anyway, folding his hand twenty seconds later.

After the hand was completed, Scott looked down at something on his left leg for at least the fourth time since heads up play started, nodded his head, and then prepared for the next hand. From media row, we can't see what Scott is looking at. Our best guess is that he has some sort of crib sheet on Le's playing style.
