Tang Shows Xu the Door
Bluff squeezing to pick up chips is fine �C as long as you don��t get caught. However, when you do get caught in the act it can cost a player their whole stack, which is exactly what has just happened to Liang Xu.
Pre-flop it was Qiang Lin opening the action from the button with a raise to 1,100 before Danny Tang re-raised to 3,650 from the small blind. Sitting in the big blind Xu eyed up both opponents before moving all-in for 46,525 in total, sending Lin deep into the think tank.
Five minutes later Lin found the fold but Tang was not convinced.
��I don��t think I can fold this here, I don��t think you have anything,�� Tang told Xu as he threw in the call.
It appeared that Tang��s spider senses are spot on as Xu turned over 
which was trailing to Tang��s 
.
The extremely sweaty 
flop brought something for both players with Tang needing to fade Xu��s heart draw. The 
turn gave the Chinese player additional outs but the 
river was not one of them and Xu headed for the exit while Tang stacked up to 120,000.
