Wong Climbing at the "Tough Table"

Level 13 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

Newly-crowned WSOP bracelet winner Jerry Wong raised to 2,500 from the cutoff and Erik Schmidt called in the big blind.

Both players checked the Q♦7♠6♦ flop before Wong bet 3,000 on the 7♦ turn.

Schmidt called and both players checked again. Wong opened up A♠9♦9♠ to win the pot and Schmidt mucked.

"This is a really tough table. After I won that first pot I didn't win another for hours. I dropped all the down to 23,000," tablemate Mel Judah said during the hand about his table that also includes Shaun Deeb and Dustin Dirksen.
