Level 23 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Chongxian Yang raised to 180,000 in the hijack and was called by Joao Simao and Ian Matakis in the blinds.

All three players checked the K♠3♠3♦ flop. Yang then bet 200,000 on the 4♦ turn, and only Simao called.

The river was the 7♦ and Simao led out for 440,000. Yang then raised to 1,200,000, and Simao ended up using nine time banks as he tanked for several minutes before throwing his cards away.
