Wang Scores a Double
Level 9
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The player in the cutoff opened to 16,000 and it was folded to Michael Wang, who made it 56,000 to go from the small blind. Action was back on the cutoff and he moved all in, which was enough to put Wang all in for about 280,000. Wang snap-called and a showdown was held.
Michael Wang: 9♦9♠
Cutoff: 4♠4♦
It was a great spot for Wang, but things quickly turned grim for him after the 4♣K♦10♣ improved his opponent to a set.
It was a short-lived mishap for Wang, however, as the 9♣ turn also improved him to a set to take a commanding lead.
The 7♣ river bricked out and Wang was awarded the double up.
