Song Bluffs Hulme to Take First Significant Pot of Heads-Up Play
In a limped pot to the 8♣7♦2♣ flop, Stephen Song 10♠7♣ checked in the big blind, and Andrew Hulme 6♠2♥ did the same on the button. Hulme made trips on the 2♠ turn to leapfrog Song's pair of sevens. Song led out for 750,000 and then saw Hulme raise to 2,600,000. Song managed to get away from his hand.
Song 7♣2♣ raised to 1,250,000 from the button and folded out Hulme J♥3♠.
Another limp pot transpired. Song A♣2♥ had the best hand on the K♠8♠4♠ flop, but folded when Hulme 5♥2♠ bet 500,000 from the button.
Song 9♠5♠ opened to 1,250,000 and called after Hulme K♣Q♣ three-bet to 4,000,000. Both players paired up on the Q♥8♥5♣ flop. Hulme bet 2,000,000 with top pair and was called. The 7♥ turn made a flush possible and Hulme check-called for 3,500,000, swelling the pot to 21,100,000. The 4♦ put a four-card straight on the board, and Hulme checked again. Song moved all in for 20,750,000 and after using a time bank, Hulme folded the best hand.
