Ong's Ace-High Holds Up
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Yu Wu had opened from the hijack to 7,500 and Leng Ong shoved from the big blind for 31,500. Wu was thinking how best to proceed and eventually elected on a call, which put Ong at risk.
Leng Ong: A♣5♠ 
Yu Wu: J♥10♥
Ong's ace-high was in the lead for now, but he certainly wouldn't have felt comfortable seeing the hand he was up against. However, the runout of 2♣6♠3♦3♣K♥ did keep his hand in the lead, and he doubled up.
