Level 32
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Gang Wang limped in on the button and Calogero Morreale checked.
The flop came 8♣6♣6♠ and Wang bet 325,000. Morreale then moved all in for 1,930,000 and Wang called.
Calogero Morreale: 9♣8♠
Gang Wang: J♥8♦
Both players had flopped two pair, but Wang was ahead with his jack-kicker. The J♦ turn improved him to jacks and eights, and Morreale was already drawing dead by the 7♥ river as he was eliminated in second place.
