Grimberg Wins With Small Raise
Level 5
: 200/400, 400 ante
Yiyao Li opened to 900 under the gun and was called by Andrei Grimberg, who was in middle position. Action made its way around to the big blind, who also defended, and the three saw the flop come 
.
The big blind checked to Li, who made a continuation-bet of 1,500. Grimberg thought for about 40 seconds and then put out a raise to 3,400. The big blind quickly folded, putting action onto Li, who thought for a half-minute before sliding his cards forward across the felt face down, resulting in Grimberg winning the pot on the flop.
Even with the lost pot, Li looks to be one of the largest stacks in the room with a pile of chips that is just over three starting stacks midway through Level 5.
