Chan and Zhao Play Another Round
We caught Justin Chan and his nemesis Zhao Yanchao embroiled in another pot together, though this time they had some company with Luo Xixiang coming along as well.
It was Chan who was the initial aggressor, making it 700 to go from the hi-jack, Zhao decided to make the call from the button and Xixiang made the call from the big blind to take play three-way to a flop of .
While two’s company, three’s a crowd and after the action was checked to Chan he decided to thin the field with a continuation bet of 1,000.
Zhao evidently had plans for the hand and re-raised to 2,200 making Xixiang realize he wanted nothing to do with it and he folded out with Chan tossing in the extras to take play heads-up to the turn.
There would be no more cards dealt. Chan checked the action over to Zhao and the Chinese player fired out a bet of 4,100 which was enough to get Chan to lay it down.
