Tang Fills Up

Level 18 : 0/0, 120,000 ante

In a three-way limped pot, the dealer spread the flop of {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} across the felt. Ivan Leow checked his {j-Spades}{10-Clubs} while Winfred Yu tossed in a bet of 100,000 with {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}. Danny Tang just called after flopping the best hand with {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Leow mucked.

The turn brought the {j-Diamonds} which slowed the action as both players knuckled the table. The river was the {6-Diamonds} which improved Tang to a full house. Yu checked again and Tang opted to check it back once more as he raked in the first pot after the dinner break.

Daniel Dvoress jammed all in for 2,195,000 in early position and was quickly called by Winfred Yu on the button, putting Dvoress at risk.

Daniel Dvoress: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Winfred Yu: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The flop of {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} didn't provide any immediate help for Dvoress and the {8-Clubs} on the turn left the Canadian drawing to an ace or a six. It was the {9-Clubs} on the river and Yu held on to eliminate Dvoress in fifth place.
