Vongxaiburana Puts in a Rare Preflop Raise
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
With nearly every pot during heads-up being limped preflop, Veerachai Vongxaiburana decided to change things up a bit by raising to 700,000 on the button. Phil Hui called and they saw a flop of J♣3♠8♥.
Both players checked to the 5♥ turn where Vongxaiburana bet 900,000. Hui called and the 8♦ river was also checked down.
Hui showed 7♠6♦5♣3♦2♦ for two pair, while Vongxaiburana had A♦Q♠7♣6♣2♠ for a low to chop the pot.
