Wong Doubles

When we reached the table, there was around 400,000 in the middle, and the board read {5-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Danny Wong was all in for 411,000 holding {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}, and Jacob Balsiger had him at risk with {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

The river was the {8-Hearts}, and Wong doubled to over 1.2 million. Balsiger slipped to 2.75 million.
