Chipleaders Square Off
Level 31
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Shean Lai open-raised from the cutoff before Cathal Shine three-bet his button. The blinds folded before Lai made the call, creating a 3,850,000 pot.
The 8♥Q♣7♠ was subsequentially checked by both players before Lai bet 750,000 on the 2♣ turn. Shine called and "Barry" came looking on the A♣ river.
Lai down-sized to 400,000 chips and Shine made a quick call. Lai tabled Q♠J♠ for a pair of queens, but it was no longer good against the A♥K♣ of Shine, who had rivered the better pair.
