Karatayeu Sends Wong to the Rail
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Table nine was suddenly left four-handed after three players had been knocked out in the last two orbits. Boris Kolev re-entered while Rowan Wong hero-called at the wrong time to be left with no chips.
Ivan Karatayeu raised to 5,000 for Kolev to call and Wong came along in the big blind. The trio checked the Q♠2♣2♦ flop and the 8♠ came on the turn. It was checked to Kolev who bet 14,000 and Wong called, Karatayeu raised to 55,000 and Wong was the only caller.
That led the duo to the 5♦ on the river on which Wong checked with 186,000 behind. Karatayeu bet 300,000 and his opponent tank-called with the 6♥2♥ for trips deuces to get out-kicked by Karatayeu's A♥2♠.
