Lau Back in the Driver Seat
Level 31
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Sergio Martinez Gonzalez raised the pot to 1,500,000 with the Q?J?9?6? and Ka Kwan Lau defended the 10?10?8?4? out of the big blind, which led them to the J?10?9? flop. Both checked to the 6? turn on which Lau bet 2,500,000 and Martinez Gonzalez called.
That led them to the 3? river and Lau fired another bet worth 4,500,000 into a pot of 8,500,000. Martinez Gonzalez reluctantly called and lost another big chunk of his stack to fall further behind.
