Lofberg, Hu Both Get a Sweat
Level 35
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Ivan Poroliev raised to 800,000 in the hijack, Simon Lofberg three-bet to 2,000,000 in the cutoff, and Poroliev folded.
Lofberg then raised to 800,000 in middle position and Lulei Hu three-bet to 2,500,000 on the button. Lofberg moved all in for 10,850,000, and Hu confirmed the amount before calling.
Simon Lofberg: A♣K♣
Lulei Hu: A♥K♥
Both players showed down ace-king and were poised to chop up the big pot, but Lofberg picked up a flush draw on the Q♣10♣5♥ flop. Hu also had a flush draw after the 10♥ turn, but they both missed the A♦ river and chopped the pot.
"Just like online," Ben Hurwitz said.
