Xu Folds to Strobel's River Shove
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Aiguo Xu opened from early position to 1,800 and Adrian Strobel three-bet from middle position to 6,300. When it got back to Xu, he called.
The flop came 7♣4♦3♥ and after Xu checked, he called a bet of 7,200 from Strobel to see the Q♦ hit the turn. Again Xu checked, and again Strobel fired, this time for 14,500. Xu called.
A 9♠ filled out the board and after Xu checked for a third time, Strobel shoved 45,000. Xu spent some time pondering, and with around 70,000 behind, he eventually elected to fold.
