Latz Runs Well to Take from Wanzi

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Only a few days ago, Hendrik Latz finished 9th in the HK$82,400 High Roller and the German is looking forward to add another score here in Macau. Just now Latz was involved in a three-way hand on the {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop in which the hijack bet 1,000. Nadia Wanzi, a PokerStars qualifier from the Netherlands, just called in the cutoff and Latz came along on the button.

After the {8-Hearts} turn, the hijack checked and subsequently folded while Wanzi bet 3,500 and Latz called. The {8-Diamonds} river completed the board and Wanzi first tossed in a T-500 chip before throwing in another two chips worth 6,000. Since only the first motion counted, the bet was a mere 500 and Wanzi joked "sorry, short arms, T-Rex. Come dance with me."

Latz was having none of it and opted for the raise to 15,500, which Wanzi called pretty quickly. Latz turned over {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a runner runner full house, while Wanzi's {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} ended up second best.
