Hu Fills Up to Leave Landi on Fumes
Amato Landi raised to 600,000 on the button and Lulei Hu announced "One fifty," in the big blind, intending to raise to 1,500,000. The dealer ruled he had to make it 1,050,000, and Landi called.
The flop came A♣8♣2♠ and Hu checked to Landi who bet 1,400,000. Hu then announced a raise, and Landi didn't even wait for him to put the chips in before moving all in. Hu snap-called.
Lulei Hu: A♠8♥ 
Amato Landi: A♥10♠
Landi had flopped top pair, but Hu had two pair and the 8♠ turn improved him to a full house. The river was the 3♦ and Hu secured the pot. The stacks were counted down and Landi had Hu's 6,200,000 covered by 500,000.
Landi moved all in from the cutoff the next hand, and Simon Lofberg reraised to 1,100,000 on the button to chase away the rest of the table.
Amato Landi: A♦J♠
Simon Lofberg: Q♣Q♠
Landi needed an ace to survive, and he found one on the A♥2♥4♠ flop to take the lead. The rest of the board ran out 6♥10♦ and he doubled up.
