Li up Big Early
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The player under the gun raised to 8,000 and was called by Pei Li in the hijack, Justin Shelton in the cutoff, and the player in the big blind.
Action checked to Li on the 2?10?10? flop and he bet 12,500. Only Shelton called.
Both players checked on the Q? turn and then Li fired 17,500 into the middle when the J? completed the board. Shelton folded.
"Pocket eights?" Li inquired as he collected the pot. "Something like that," Shelton replied. "I couldn't even find the hero call."
Li, who won his first bracelet last year, has built his stack substantially from the start of the day and currently sits with around 730,000.
