Gu Goes Big
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Dominique Prefontaine opened in late position to 900 before getting called by Karim Abdelhamid on the button and by the small blind. The action was then on Weiping Gu in the big blind who put in a three-bet to 4,200. Prefontaine and Abdelhamid called but the small blind folded.
They were three ways to a J♣3♠4♦ flop. Gu led for a large sizing of 7,200. Both players called on their way to a K♣ turn. Gu sat in the tank for almost two minutes before putting in an overbet of 41,300 into a pot of about 35,000.
Prefontaine quickly folded but Karim Abdelhamid sat in the tank for over three minute before he eventually found the fold. Gu dragged a massive pot without seeing a river or showing down his hand.
