Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Luis Diazmoreno opened the action from under the gun with a raise to 550,000 and was quickly met with an all-in from Wenmian Hua in the hijack for roughly 2,800,000. After giving it some thought, Diazmoreno made the call, and the cards were turned up.
Wenmian Hua: 5♠5♣
Luis Diazmoreno: K♣Q♥
Hua held the lead through the 3♦8♦3♣ flop and 4♥ turn, but the river brought the Q♦, pairing Diazmoreno’s queen and turning the hand in his favor. Hua was eliminated, while Diazmoreno scooped the pot and boosted his stack.
