Opposing directions for Singh and Liu

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

Two of the later entries are India's Amanpreet Singh and China's Changyang Liu, and they are seated in two different tables. They are also heading to different directions as one is going up the chip counts and the other is going down.

Amanpreet Singh won a pot where he raised in the turn to 8,700 against his opponent's bet to 3,000. The other player called and the board on the river was {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. This time both players checked, and Singh took down the pot with {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for a set, while his opponent showed that he missed a massive draw with {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

Meanwhile, Changyang Liu is left with around 13,000, by calling a 15,000 bet on the river in a board of {7-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{j-Spades} against Lei Yu. Yu showed ace-king for the nut straight and Liu mucked.

"Count" or "Call"?

Level 3 : 100/300, 300 ante

A strange hand took place in one of the tables where there's been a five-bet all in. A player four-bet to 20,000 and his opponent, who had already three-bet, announced all in.

The other player said "Count" but the dealer heard "Call", so she said "Call" to the other player who quickly opened his cards, with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}! Then, the first player let her now that he said "Count", and so he had the chance to think with his opponent's cards face-up.

The all-in was around 37,000, so he had to invest 17,000 more, to win a pot around 60,000. But you always make the correct decision when you know your opponent's cards, right? So, he folded...
