Dinh Connects Four
Dinh Le was the very first champion of the PokerStars.net APPT Macau back in Season 1, and he's doing some work towards another deep run this time around as well.
We walked up to his table just as the river card came out to complete a board of . Chin Te Chiu was Le's opponent, and he put out a bet of 6,500. With no delay, Le instantly moved all in with his covering stack. Chiu had just about 8,000 left behind at that point, and he quickly stuck them into the pot to put his own tournament life in danger.
Le tabled , and that's what the kids call "the nuts". Chiu stood from his chair, still holding on to his cards and chatting with Le in a language we couldn't understand. He seemed to be telling Le what he had, and Le was giving him that, "Who cares, I have quads," look. After some head-shaking, Chiu finally gave his cards back to the dealer and headed for the exit.
Le is up to 74,000 after that knockout.
