Good Energy For Everyone
According to Wesley Fei, it's all about skill AND energy. Earlier at the final table he went all in from early position off a decent stack and when everyone folded he showed Q♣10♦ and Pete Chen laughed out lout, to which Fei said, "I've bluffed in a $3,000,000 pot, this is nothing!". Chen, perhaps humbled, couldn't help but agree.
His most recent all in was called by Brady Hinnegan and Pete Chen, all Fei could do was remind them about the energy.
Brady Hinnegan: A♣K♠
Wesley Fei: 9♠10♠
Pete Chen: K♠K♥
Always a sweat, the dealer presented Q♦7♦10♦, despite no one having a diamond, everyone was still live to scoop.
The turn brought the 4♦ and all the players were up on their feet sweating the river when it rolled off the 2♦ making it a decidedly chopped pot.
"Energy! Skill is a scam!", exclaimed Fei as he gave his rail high fives and took a picture.
