Luo Trips up Dong
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Nelson Dong opened to 200,000 with A♦6♦ in the cutoff and was called by Chad Awerbuch in the small blind with 7♥6♥ and Louis Luo in the big blind holding 8♦3♦.
The 8♣4♥8♥ flop was checked to Dong, who continued for 200,000. Luo just called with his trips and Awerbuch peeled with his flush draw.
It was again checked to Dong on the K♦ turn and he barreled for 350,000. The time, Awerbuch folded but Luo check-raised to 850,000.
Dong thought it over, but decided to lay his hand down and Luo collected the pot.
