Ethan Yau had a tough session on Hustler Casino Live's Friday, October 30 broadcast. Yau was the second-biggest loser of the night, losing a total of $176,200. The biggest winner of the night was Dumbledore, who finished with $389,200.

A large part of Yau's biggest loss came from a single hand against Dumbledore. The blinds were $100 and $200, and two straddles were in play. Regular show guest Peter Wang limped from the big blind with 8-7. Dumbledore raised to $4,000 from the first straddle with A-10. Yau, however, raised to $15,000 from the second straddle with pocket kings, and Wang folded.

The flop came 7, 6, and 2. Dumbledore missed and checked. Yau also checked, despite having top pair. The turn was a 10, and Dumbledore made top pair. Dumbledore bet $20,000, and Yau called, bringing the pot to $71,100.

On the river, Dumbledore made an overbet of $125,000. Yau took a long time to think about the decision and eventually called. Dumbledore's hand turned out to be three of a kind. Dumbledore took the $321,100 pot and raised his stack to over $627,000. When the broadcast ended, there was more than $2 million on the table.
