Tang Sun Running into the Chip Lead
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Danny Tang opened to 60,000 from the cutoff and Yunsheng Sun three-bet to 200,000. Tang four-bet to 480,000 and Sun immediately announced all in for about 1,600,000. Tang snap-called to put him at risk.
Yumsheng Sun: A♠K♣
Danny Tang: A♣A♥
Both players had a monster hand but Sun was in dire straits against Tang's aces. He only runner outs on the Q♥4♣9♥ flop and the 8♣ turn left him drawing dead. The river was an inconsequential 6♠ and Tang scooped in a pot worth nearly four million, taking the chip lead while Sun was sent to the rail.
