Lu Gets Three Streets From Lipton
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Qing Lu came in for a raise from the button to 600,000 and Chad Lipton defended from the big blind.
Lipton check-called a bet of 600,000 from Lu on the 7♠Q♦2♣ flop.
The A♥ joined on the turn, and Lipton check-called a second bet from Lu, this time for 1,200,000.
Lipton knuckled it over to Lu for the final time on the 5♥ river, and Lu fired a third and final barrel of 2,200,000.
The bet was for over half of Lipton's stack, and after giving it plenty of consideration, Lipton flicked in a chip to call.
Lu revealed A♦Q♥ for top two pair, and Lipton was forced to carve out the chips and send them across the table, leaving himself as the new short stack.
