Hand #97 - Dinh Le

[user38449]

Dinh Le has the button in seat 6 and makes it 140,000 to go before the flop and Ivan Tan makes the call.

The flop comes {5-Spades}

and Tan checks to Le who makes a continuation bet of 255,000; Tan calls.

The turn brings the {A-Clubs}

and Dinh Le moves all in out of turn. Matt Savage then explained to Tan that if he checks, Lee will still be forced to go all in. Also, if Tan were to bet, Le's all in would be negated and he would regain all of his actions.

After some time in the tank, Tan chose to check, Le's all in move stood, and Tan let go of his hand.
