Xu Pressures Soulier
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
In a single-raised pot, the flop was A♣A♠J♠ and Hang Xu checked his big blind to Corentin Soulier, who bet 80,000. Xu called.
On the 6♣ turn, Xu checked, Soulier bet 325,000, Xu check-raised to 725,000, and Soulier called.
The river was the 10♥ and Xu bombed it for 2,100,000, leaving himself a mere 250,000 behind. Soulier removed his sunglasses and stared intently at Xu, who sat with his mouth covered and his own sunglasses on. After a minute or so, Soulier gave it up.
