Tan Takes the Initiative
Level 25
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
John Pannucci opened to 55,000 in middle position and Lanny Levine called behind and Longsheng Tan came along as well from the big blind.
The flop came 
and all three players checked. The 
turn saw Tan check again and Pannucci delayed his continuation, making it 85,000. This prompted Levine to fold but Tan made the call.
On the 
river, Tan changed tack, opting to lead rather than check. He made it 175,000 to see his cards and Pannucci decided to fold.
