Lucky Wang
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Action was picked up with four players in a hand on a flop of 8♥Q♥4♣. With action passed to him, Albert Wooten took a few seconds before betting 55,000 into the pot. Xie Wang snap-shoved all-in for 940,000 which made Alyssa Hennager and John Divecha fold.
Wooten went into the tank. With Wooten visibly deep in thought, Wang said, "I'll show." After hearing that, Wooten decided to concede his hand and the pot to Wang. As promised, Wang showed 8♦8♣ and said, "I've got the nuts. I'm so lucky." Wooten fisted the air happy to have avoided a possible disaster.
As she was scooping the pot, she was excitedly relating how she started the day with 34,000 and how she just kept doubling up to build her massive stack.
