Ni Wins at Showdown
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Liangce Ni open-raised to 800 from middle position, Niclas Thumm called on the button, and Hugues Girard called in the big blind.
The flop came 9♦3♣Q♠ and Ni continued for 1,300. Thumm and Girard both called the bet. The turn was the 3♠ and Girard checked. Ni made it 3,500 to go and only Thumm called.
On the K♣ river, Ni and Thumm checked to showdown. Ni showed Q♣J♥ for a pair of queens, which was enough to win the pot as his opponent tossed his cards in the muck.
