Hui Springs the Trap, Gets Paid on the River
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Loni Hui opened from early position with A♠Q♠, and after action folded around, Zhannan Ge three-bet to 6,500 from the cutoff. Hui called, and the two went heads-up to the flop.
The 9♣10♠2♠ flop gave Hui a strong flush draw, and she checked to Ge, who fired 5,500. Hui called without hesitation.
When the 6♠ landed on the turn, Hui completed her flush but opted to check again. Ge slowed down and checked back.
The river brought the 2♦, and Hui seized the moment with a bold over-pot-bet of 27,000. Ge thought it over and made the call, only to see Hui table the nuts, dragging in a healthy pot.
