Wang Welcomes Wakil to the Table

Taiwan's Chih-Yuan Wang had already doubled his stack in the early stages and now added even more chips shortly after Jamil Wakil had entered the tournament and sat down at his table.

The action started with a raise to 5,000 by Tom Fuchs which was called by Wang, Wakil and Spencer Champlin behind them to the J♠10♦2♦ flop. It checked to Wakil on the button and he bet 12,000 for Wang to call. After the Q♠ turn, Wang check-called for 40,000 and check-called the 6♥ river for another 110,000.

Wakil revealed the 2♠2♣ for a flopped set of deuces but Wang had turned the second nut straight with the K♦9♣.
