Lai and Butba Go to War Early on
Niveau 1
: 100/100, 0 ante
Anson Tsang took a decent chunk out of the stack of Ekrem Sanioglu and one table over, Eric Lai did the same with Said Butba.
Lai's bet of 6,000 on the river of a completed board of 
was called by Butba, who couldn't beat the 
of the Frenchman. One hand later, Lai opened to 300 and Butba three-bet to 1,100, Lai called. On the 
flop, Lai checked and Butba claimed back some of the losses when forcing a fold with a bet of 2,000.
Back to Tsang's table, Pierre Calamusa had sat down and was about to get his chips. The dealer checked his ticket and informed him that he was in fact one table over. "Nice playing with you," another player at the table joked while Calamusa grabbed his belongings and headed to the correct seat.
