Wang Pulls Runner, Runner

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The short-stacked Junfeng Wang was all-in for his last 9,300 with {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} from middle position with neighbor Le Peng Cheng looking him up with {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}.

Wang's fate was in the hands of the poker gods, and it was a good old-fashioned race to boot. It was one that Wang looked to have lost when the flop came down {8-Hearts}{a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} to give Cheng top two. However, the poker gods have a sense of humor and Wang hit the {10-Spades} turn to make a set, improving to quads on the {10-Hearts} river, to appreciative 'ooohs' and 'ahhhhs' from the rest of the table.

That spot of could fortune saw Wang double to 20,000 and Cheng drop to 50,000.
