Lau Raises it Away on the River
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Ka Kwan Lau raised 80,000 in the hijack and Vlad Darie defended the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of A♣Q♥6♥, and Darie check-called a continuation bet of 80,000.
The 7♦ hit the turn and Darie check-called another bet of 300,000 from Lau.
When the Q♣ landed on the river, Darie took the lead, firing 425,000 into the middle. Lau put in a raise to 1,000,000, and Darie went into the tank. After a little over a minute, Darie finally gave up his hand as he pushed the cards towards the dealer.
