Yushan Shi

Yushan Shi bet 2,500 from the hijack on a flop of 10♥3♠7♣ and an opponent in early position called.

The turn was the J♠ and Shi bet 8,000. His opponent again called, and the 3♦ fell on the river. Shi then bet 15,000, and his opponent moved all in.

While it was unclear whether Shi's bet had his opponent covered, he still quickly slammed in a few extra to signify a call. He turned over J♣10♣ for two pair, and his opponent mucked on his way to the rail.
