Easy Squeezy
Level 29
: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Ivan Leow has brought his 'good spot detector' with him today and just found another great spot to pick up some free chips. It all started when Xiaobo Zhou made it 180,000 to go on the button and Chang Bo Feng made the call from the small blind. That was like waving a red flag at a bull, as Ivan Leow was in the big blind.
Leow squeezed to 625,000 and Zhou did not look happy about it at all, but he eventually folded, as did Feng, leaving Leow to pad out his stack to the tune of 410,000, all without showdown.
