Andy Hills was in the cutoff and up against Jiaze Li in the small blind. Hills had seen his initial raise three-bet to 115,000, and he had responded with a four-bet to 260,000. Li had Hills covered and went into thinking mode after studying his opponent's stack size. Li then made his move and five-bet to 670,000. Hills had around 1.5m behind him, and after he counted his stack, he thought for another 30 seconds before he waved the white flag and folded as Li picked up the big pot preflop.
