Li Looking To Extend Lead

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

Yuguang Li is currently leading the 2015 Asia Player of the Year Leaderboard because of his back to back titles during the Macau Poker Cup in March of this year.

He took down the Red Dragon event before late registering the High Roller event on the same day and taking that down the following day. The two titles earned Li just over $450,000 in prize money.

We caught Li in a hand that started with the action folding around to the player on the button. He raised it up to 625 only to watch Li bump it up to 1,800 in chips. The bet was called and both players watched the flop come down {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

A check followed before the player on the button slid out 1,700 in chips. Li made the call before both players checked their option on the {k-Hearts} turn.

The {a-Spades} completed the board and Li reached for his chips and splashed out 4,700. The bet was enough to take down the pot as Li’s opponent threw his cards into the muck.

Li moves up to 54,000 following the hand.
