Wang is Rising

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Michael Wang
Michael Wang

Michael Wang and Evan Krentzman were heads-up on a flop of 563 with about 5,000 already in the middle and Krentzman check-called a 2,600 bet from Wang.

Krentzman check-called a 7,000 barrel from Wang on the K turn and checked a final time after the 5 paired the board on the river.

Wang sized up for a bet of 24,400 — sending Krentzman deep into the tank. After a few minutes, Krentzman thought better of it and folded, conceding the sizable pot to the defending champion.
