Wong and Gerard Chop
Level 13
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A big pot was brewing between Hong Kong's Tung Wing Wong and the USA's Edwin Gerard, with action picked up on a flop of 
with around 14,000 already in the pot.
Sitting in middle position, Wong was first to act and fired for 4,500 and Gerard mulled it over, eventually sliding in the call to bring both players to the 
turn, which saw no betting.
The 
river saw Wong reach for chips and bet 15,500, leaving himself 24,400 behind. Gerard did not take too long to make the call, and while his 
was ahead of Wong's 
pre-flop, the resulting runout was an anti-climatic chop.
