Li Locks Up the Triple

Level 4 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ze Yu Li opened to 4,400 from under the gun, and Christopher Frank three-bet to 16,800 from early position. Dylan Weisman called from the hijack, and Li jammed for 69,800. Frank re-jammed for ~210,000, and Weisman called.

Ze Yu Li: AA72All in
Dylan Weisman: AKJ2All in
Christopher Frank: J1097

Li had the best of it with aces, and he stood to watch his fate. The 5Q8 flop brought in the nut flush draw for Li and kept him ahead.

Things just got better for Li as the J turn was peeled, completing his flush, and he was saved from elimination. Weisman had picked up the second-nut flush to take the side pot after the 8 river was placed. Frank took a big hit after the hand, and was left with just over one-third of a starting stack.
