Biggest Pot Of The Day

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

We arrived at the table with the board showing {7-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and just over 120,000 in the pot.

Jiajun Liu checked from the big blind before Yat Wai Cheng slid out 100,000 in chips. Liu waited a minute, before raising it up to 200,000 which was called.

The {6-Hearts} on the river saw Liu check again. Cheng didn't waste any time, collecting all the big chips he had and pushing out 275,000 in chips. Liu wasn't pleased with the bet and eventually mucked his hand.

As Cheng was scooping in the pot, he rolled over his {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a bluff, much to the disappointment of Liu.
