Wang Sends Martin to the Rail
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
We missed the elimination of Twitch star and Big Brother Canada winner Kevin Martin but we did learn some details after the fact.
As it was related to us from some players at his former table, Martin moved all in under the gun for 50,000 holding 
and Stanley Wang called with 
suited.
A 
flop gave Wang the lead and he maintained it when a 
appeared on the turn followed by a on the river.
