Don't Have a Cao, Man

Rui Cao

Vladamir Geshkenbein appears to be the top stack in the room right now with about 155,000, but he's got his work cut out holding on to them with the aggressive Rui Cao to his left. Just a few moments ago, we caught them involved in a small pot that's a microcosm of what's going on over there.

Geshkenbein was the preflop raiser, and Cao had called with one other player. The flop brought out {A-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {A-Hearts}, and Geshkenbein fired out 4,500 chips as a continuation bet. Cao quickly called as the third player folded, and the two men went heads up the rest of the way.

The turn and river came and went pretty uneventfully, though, as both men checked through the {Q-Hearts} and {K-Diamonds}.

"I have nothing," said Geshkenbein, tabling {10-Spades} {5-Spades}. Cao showed up {Q-Clubs} {8-Clubs}, and his aces and eights win him the small pot.
