Gong Attempts to Bully Meng Off the Hand
Level 16
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Xiangqian Gong limped in from the small blind and Xiangnan Meng checked his option in the big blind. An action flop of Q♣10♦9♦ hit the felt and Gong led out with a bet of 20,000. Meng raised to 50,000 and Gong responded with a three-bet to 125,000. Meng just called and the J♦ hit the turn.
Gong fired out another bet of 70,000 and Meng just called to see the K♣ on the river. Gong announced all in with a straight on the board and Meng quickly called off his stack of around 275,000. Gong turned over J♠8♥ for a flopped straight but was now just playing the board. Meanwhile, Meng held 8♦5♦ for a flush and earned a double up.
