Hu Bluff Loses Heaps to Garcia
Level 23
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Murilo Garcia raised to 110,000 with the A♣J♠ and Lulei Hu defended the big blind holding the K♥9♦. The J♥7♦7♣ flop saw Hu with the check and Pedroso checked it back to the 2♥ turn. Hu checked again and Garcia overbet for 500,000 into a pot of only 295,000.
Hu check-raised to 1,200,000 and Garcia called to see the 3♥ river complete a possible flush. Both players now checked it down and Hu smirked vividly after losing the big pot.
