Hu Forces the Fold

Three-way action to the 9♣9♥2♠ flop saw Anthony Hu check in the big blind and Ari Shin do the same from under the gun.

Vince Salvatore bet 20,000, which was quickly met by a check-raise by Hu to 48,000. Shin got out of the way before Salvatore went into the tank.

After taking some time and chatting with his opponent across the table, Salvatore opted to lay it down.

"You looked like you wanted to raise pre," explained Salvatore as Hu raked in the pot.

Eshaan Bhalla and Michael Wang were the next to hit the rail, both exiting from table 30.
