Menes Takes from Lau
Level 1
: 50/100, 0 ante
One of the tables with several notables includes Daniel Laidlaw, David Peters and Ka Kwan Lau, but the first major pot of the day went to Gigi Menes.
In a three-way pot to the flop of 
, Lau checked out of the big blind and Menes checked behind from under the gun. On the 
turn, Lau bet 475 and Menes called before the 
appeared on the river. Lau bet 2,550 and Menes didn't announce anything, but tossed in 3,100 in chips.
The floor was called, but since it was less than 50% of the bet, it was ruled as call only. Lau turned over his 
for two pair while Menes scooped the pot with 
for a straight.
