"I Was Worried About Him, Not You"
Hong Kong's Ka Kwan Lau is one of the more established players in the Main Event with nearly $1.5 million in live cashes. He just lost some chips in a hand, but it sounds like it could have been alot worse.
Lau opened to 4,500 from the hijack. Francesco Grande called from the small blind before Serge Attyasse jammed for 31,500 from the big blinds.
The action paused on Lau for a few minutes before he four-bet to 62,500. It then took Grande two minutes to act before he folded.
Serge Attyasse:
Ka Kwan Lau:
"Oyyyy," said Grande in frustration. "I had tens."
The flop gave Attyasse a set and his opponent needed to complete a backdoor straight draw to win the hand. Lau was drawing dead after the came on the turn.
"Oyyyy," said Grande again.
"You would have lost the hand," said Attyasse at the completed the board on the river to officially give the Frenchman the hand.
"I was worried about him, not you," responded Grande.
