Li Leaps in to Lead After Busting Kihara

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Naoya Kihara
Naoya Kihara

Yuguang Li has taken over the chip lead after getting Naoya to call off his stack on the river with a worse hand.

Li (cutoff) called a 1,000 under the gun raise before Kihara squeezed to 4,400 from the blinds. The original raiser folded but Li called to see a {5-Spades}{9-Spades}{a-Diamonds} flop. Kihara continued for 4,200 and was called before he checked the {2-Hearts} turn. Li bet 7,000 and Naoya called. The river was the {3-Clubs} and Li set Kihara in for his remaining chips. The PokerStars Team Online player tanked for a while before calling off with ace-king. It was no good though as Li opened {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a flopped two pair.
