Lu Busts Wilf to Scoop Huge Pot as Day 1a Draws to Close
Action was on the turn on a board of 5♦5♣Q♦3♥ and Qing Lu led with a bet of 30,000 from the big blind, around a pot sized bet, which Saar Wilf called.
The river came the 10♣ and Lu pushed all in with her opponent covered. Wilf went deep into the tank and started enquiring about Lu's hand.
"You have aces or queens? If you have ace-queen I have it," said Wilf.
"I have no idea what you're talking about," retorted Lu with some sincerity, which provoked a giggle from tablemates.
After tanking for a while and shrugging his shoulders, Wilf said, "If you play aces this way then..." and put the rest of his stack in the middle, around 50,000.
Wilf had Q♣10♠ for two pair, queens and tens. Lu flipped over A♣A♠ for a better two pair, aces with the fives on board to win the pot.
"I reraised pre," said Lu, perplexed by Wilf's reaction to the hand. Wilf was eliminated and Lu scooped in a huge pot during the last few hands of the day.
