Mcewen's Five-Bet Gets Through
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Upeshka Desilva raised to 12,000 in the hijack, Preston Mcewen three-bet to 32,000 in the cutoff, and Zhiyuan Xu cold four-bet to 82,000 on the button.
Desilva got out of the way, and Mcewen thought for a moment before putting in a five-bet to 220,000. Xu then went into the tank, eventually deciding to give up his hand.
