Xu Takes From Buzgon
Action was opened from the cutoff to 26,000 by current chip leader Daniel Buzgon. Cheng Xu was next to act on the button and called. The big blind completed and they were off to a flop three-ways.
The Q?7?7? flop hit the felt and action quickly checked to Xu on the button who thought for a moment before putting out a bet of 35,000. The big blind folded but after some thought Buzgon called.
The 5? landed on the turn and Buzgon checked again. Xu took his time but after a few moments in the tank he put out a large bet of 120,000.
Buzgon asked for a count, looked over Xu's stack and went into the tank for about a minute. Eventually he thought better of a call and returned his cards to the dealer. Xu dragged this one but Buzgon still holds the chip lead.
