Li Turns a Straight to Stay Alive

Connor Richards

Level 25 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Weiran Pu open-jammed in the small blind and Chao Li called off in the big blind with 3,600,000.

Chao Li: Q♥J♥ All in
Weiran Pu: A♦8♥

The flop of K♦9♣5♥ gave Li hope with a gutshot, and he got there as the board finished out 10♥9♦ to earn him a double up with a straight.
