Michael Wang Eliminated in 3rd Place ($120,000)
Level 21
: 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Michael Wang opened to 250,000 on the button, and once it folded to the big blind Chad Eveslage, he three-bet to 675,000. Wang took his time before making the call.
The flop came 9♣10♦8♠ and Eveslage bet to put Wang all in for his stack of 1,635,000, which Wang snap called.
Michael Wang: 10♥9♥
Chad Eveslage: K♥K♦
Wang out flopped the pocket kings of Eveslage and kept his lead after the 2♣ on the turn. But the 8♦ on the river counterfeited Wang's two pair, eliminating him in brutal fashion.
