Heavy preflop betting tends to result in shoves and it did so here starting with a raise from under the gun for 600. Button player Jongho Lee three-bets 3500, small blind Cheng Wen Huang ramps it up with a four-bet to 8000, then big blind Dave Aguila goes all in for 14,800. Much too much for the initial raiser who folds while Lee and Huang don't hesitate and call.
The three-way cooler ends with the best hand taking it down as two players quickly leave the floor.
