Ji Empties the Clip

Xiaqing Ji opened to 250,000 on the button holding 5♦3♣ and Jinsui Fan defended his blind with an unknown hand due to a card-reader error.

Fan check-called a 125,000 bet from Ji on the 7♠K♦J♣ flop and a 650,000 bet from Ji on the 6♦ turn.

Fan checked a final time after the 8♥ completed the board and Ji announced he was all in, which was enough to put Fan all in for hist last 1,400,000.

It was a courageous bluff from Ji holding just five-high and Fan didn't take long to lay down what was sure to be the winning hand.
