Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Wenling Gao and Anthony Mak have clashed in a few pots already today, and while Mak had been getting the best of this previously, Gao took all her chips back with interest when the two tangled in the following hand.

Mak slid out a tower of blue 5k chips for a bet of 100,000 to effectively put Gao all-in, and the Chinese player called off her 93,000 stack and the cards went on their backs.

Wenling Gao	186,000 136,000	136,000
