Lim Gets Boloqui To Fold the Superior Hand
The action folded to Jose Boloqui in the small blind and he raised to 2,500,000 with the J♠J♥, earning a call from Brett Lim with the Q♠9♦. The 9♣8♦5♦ flop saw Boloqui with a check and Lim bet 3,000,000. Without any hesitation whatsoever, Boloqui check-raised to 8,500,000, and Lim tossed in the extra chips for the call.
After the A♠ turn, Boloqui checked the second street in a row and Lim pondered about his next move, glancing several times at the board and his opponent. Lim then bet 9,000,000 and Boloqui instantly grabbed some possible calling chips while blowing out some air. However, he went deep into the tank and even tried to start some table chat without getting any reply or reaction of Lim, who was staring away from him.
"Sorry guys, I have a big hand," Boloqui apologised to the table after all his previous questions to Lim were left unanswered. He folded shortly after and Lim raked in the pot to extend his lead.
"Good fold?" Boloqui asked and Lim replied "I don't know, for you or for me? I might still hit the winning hand," the reply came thereafter.
