Ace from Space Saves Wu
Level 8
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ngoc Phuong Nguyen opened to 10,000 in the cutoff and Yuhang Liu three-bet to 30,000 on the button. Meng Wu then four-bet jammed a stack of 121,000 in the small blind and Nguyen folded before Liu called with a bigger stack.
Meng Wu: A♠K♦ 
Yuhang Liu: Q♠Q♦
Liu's queens were still ahead after the 4♣2♠6♥ flop and 7♣ turn, but the river brought the A♦ to give Wu the winner for a double.
