Top Pair for Tsui
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
On the third hand after the restart, Justin Tsui opened to 600,000 from the button with A♠8♣ and Gandalf defended from the big blind with 5♥4♣.
Tsui continued for 500,000 on the 3♦Q♦A♥ flop, and fired a second barrel of 1,700,000 on the 4♠ turn. Gandalf check-called both times.
The 9♣ river landed on the felt and after Gandalf checked, Tsui bet 3,500,000. Gandalf went into the tank and called with a pair, but lost to Tsui's top pair.
