Li Sends Tsou to the Rail
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
With 19,000 in the middle to the 6♣5♣4♦K♦ turn, James Tsou in the hijack bet 12,000. Tom McCormick was in a long tank and then folded in the cutoff before Chengbei Li called on the button. Tsou bet the 7♠ river for 35,000 for around half of his stack.
Li moved all in with the covering stack, and Tsou reluctantly called. Li tabled the 9♦8♦ for the nine-high straight, and Tsou mucked the 8♠ face-up before his A♠ was revealed as well.
