Uka More Than Doubles
Level 5
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Zihao Chen opened to 2,500 first to act and was called by Uno Uka on the button and the player in the big blind.
It was checked to Chen, who continued for 5,000 on the 7♠Q♥7♥ flop. Uno Uka raised to 12,000 and the big blind shoved for their last 28,000. Chen also went all in and Uka called all in for approximately 60,000 for a three-way showdown.
Big blind: J♦7♦
Uno Uka: 7♣6♣
Zihao Chen: K♦K♥
Uka found himself out-kicked with his trips, but the 6♦ turn filled Uka up to take a commanding lead in the hand.
The 4♠ river changed nothing and Uka doubled through Chen while also collected the rest of the big blind's chips.
