Asmolov Doubles Through Li
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Timofey Asmolov previously clashed with Shengyu Li and saw his ace-seven lose against king-queen. Both got their stacks in again just now with very similar hands and it was Asmolov, who raised and ultimately four-bet all in for 118,000. Li followed up his three-bet for a call worth almost one third of his stack and the cards were tabled.
Timofey Asmolov: 
Shengyu Li: 
The 
flop took away some outs from Li and Asmolov locked up the double with the 
on the turn, making the 
river a formality. "King queen again?" Li was asked and he simply nodded.
