Wakeman Getting Involved from the Start

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

The board read {2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} with around 30,000 in the middle already. Both Matthew Wakeman in mid-position and David Wang in the hijack checked. The river completed the board with the {7-Diamonds} for Wakeman to shove and Wang to fold immediately

The hand after, Wakeman raised from under the gun and Qiang Fu three-bet to 2,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Wakeman made the call. The flop brought them the {6-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{9-Spades}, Wakeman check-called the 2,600 continuation-bet of Fu. The turn was the {3-Clubs}, Wakeman checked again. Fu took some time to consider his options and then decided to continue with a bet of 6,000. Wakeman quickly folded.

Shortly after, Wang was moved to the feature table to balance it out.
