Sometimes It’s the Front Door That You Hit
After a couple of limped family pots that got no further than the flop and a single bet, everyone but Danny Tang called for 60,000 to see a flop of [AsJdTs]. First to act Paul Phua, having flopped bottom two pair with [JhTh], checked. Ivan Leow bet 125,000 with the underpair [7d7s], Wai Leong Chan on the button called with [Kd9d], as did Phua.
Chan spiked the perfect [Qh] on the turn, prompting James Dempsey on the comms to say, “Sometimes it’s the front door that you hit,” but no one called the 350,000 he bet when it checked to him.
