Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Ling Chen limped in from early position, after which Wantao Tang shoved all in on the button. Chen called off for his stack of 76,000 once it had folded back to him, putting him at risk.
Ling Chen: A♠K♦
Wantao Tang: A♦8♦
Chen's superior ace remained best on the A♥J♥Q♥5♠2♣ runout, doubling him up and leaving Tang with just three big blinds.
