Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Kou Vang is not a player others want to see with chips.

On a {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop, Kou Vang bet out 8,200 from under the gun only to see Mark Sandness make it 21,300 from the cutoff. Vang three-bet to 53,200. Sandness responded by pushing all in, and Vang quickly called.

Vang: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Sandness: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Vang's overpair was good, and a {9-Spades} kept him in front. Sandness couldn't suck out on the {8-Hearts} river either, and Vang's quest for three straight MSPT final tables got a big boost.
