Tang Gets Trappy with Aces
Level 4
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Brek Schutten opened to 10,000 in middle position and Nick Petrangelo reraised to 30,000 on his left. Danny Tang flat-called from the big blind and Schutten stepped aside.
The flop came K♣8♥2♠ and Tang check-called a bet of 12,500 from Petrangelo. The turn was the J♦ and Tang checked again. Petrangelo tossed in a bet of 55,000 and Tang still called.
The river was the 5♠ and Tang checked for the third time. Petrangelo checked it back and Tang whipped over A♥A♣ for the best hand.
