Wang and Kashat Lead the Way

Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Just before their table broke, Mark Berente bet the A1097 turn for 15,000. Firas Kashat raised the pot by tossing in multiple T-25,000 chips and then tried to goad Berente into a call. The Hungarian, however, folded and Kashat exposed his A2 before racking up his massive stack.

Yang Wang knocked out James Cavanaugh to also jump to a seven-figure stack as well.
