Wong Wins Rare Three-Way Pot
Most of the action among the final four players have been a series of heads-up battles, but recently three players got involved with the chip leader as the beneficiary.
The action started with Don Nguyen raising on the button. He was then three-bet by Danny Wong in the small blind, and Brian Yoon also defended his big blind. Nguyen called the three-bet and the trio drew their first round of cards.
Wong took two, Yoon took two, and Nguyen only needed one.
It didn't take long for the pot to continue to grow, as Nguyen bet after the action checked to him, but Wong came in with a check-raise that was called by both Yoon and Nguyen.
Wong patted his hand, while Yoon still needed two cards and Nguyen needed one.
Wong immediately took over the betting lead and was called by Yoon. Nguyen however chose to fold at that point.
Wong again patted while Yoon drew one.
Wong checked to Yoon who bet, but Wong quickly called.
"Pair", said Yoon, and Wong happily turned over to win a big pot and extend his chip lead even further.
