Stott Doubles Through Dong; Luo Eliminates van Wijk
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Nelson Dong was in the big blind and faced with a shove for around 650,000 from Peter Stott, who was in the hijack, on a flop of 4♦5♣9♠.
Dong tanked for a while before reluctantly placing in a call.
Peter Stott: 10♠10♥
Nelson Dong: A♦9♣
Stott found himself in good shape with an overpair to Dong's nines, and the K♣7♠ runout kept Stott best for the double up.
At another table, Armon van Wijk ended up all in preflop with ace-king against Louis Luo, who held aces.
Van Wijk couldn't catch a miracle runout and fell victim to the preflop cooler to be eliminated.
