Jia Surpasses Song in Another Clash
Level 30
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Stephen Song raised to 60,000 with A♦K♠ from under the gun and William Jia just called in middle position with 9♠9♣. The rest of the table folded and the dealer fanned the flop of 7♣6♠4♦.
Song started with a check and Jia followed with a check of his own. The 8♣ landed on the turn and Song checked again. Jia continued to play along by checking it down to the 3♠ on the river.
Song finally stuck in a bet of 115,000 and Jia quickly called with the only pair to rake in another pot, taking over the top spot from Song.
