Schaffel Takes a Shot at Luu

It was another four-way limped pot at Hieu Luu's table. There have been several of those recently. On a flop of {j-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {5-Hearts} Luu bet 200,000 after both blinds checked. Only Kevin Schaffel, who had position on Luu, made the call.

The turn was the {Q-Spades}. Luu checked to Schaffel and induced a bet of 400,000. Luu check-raised that bet to 1.2 million, but Schaffell -- perhaps aware of Luu's highly aggressive tendencies -- re-raised back all in for 3.3 million total. Luu folded.
