Locquet Isolates to Protect Oike
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Katie Lindsay raised to 16,000 in early position and Emi Oike called all in for the same amount in middle position. Shigui Liang on the button and Lester Edoc in the small blind also called. Romain Locquet, though, three-bet to 88,000 in the big blind and Lindsay quickly folded. Liang took a minute before also folding, while Edoc also got out of the way.
Emi Oike: Q♣10♠ 
Romain Locquet: Q♦6♥
"Gave you a chance," Locquet told Oike when he turned over their cards.
"Was that necessary?" Lindsay asked him.
Locquet took the lead on the 6♦3♣5♣ flop with a pair of sixes, but Oike spiked the 10♦ on the turn to move in front. The river was the 4♠ and Oike quintupled up.
