Wong Ousts Avalos
Level 31
: Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante
She Wong opened to 600,000 from the hijack before Justo Avalos shoved for 1,260,000 from the small blind. Wong called to put Avalos at risk.
Justo Avalos: A♥A♣
She Wong: Q♣J♠
Avalos got the aces again and was in a prime position to double up.
The flop gave Avalos a big piece when it came K♦A♦8♥ to give him top set. However, Wong was still alive with a straight draw.
Avalos stayed ahead on the 3♥ turn, as Wong kept calling for a ten to crack the aces.
Wong got his wish on the river when the 10♦ peeled to give Wong a straight and eliminate Avalos from contention.
