Wang Pays the Fee

Level 13 : 500/1,000, 0 ante
Ryan Fee
Ryan Fee

With about 9,000 in the pot and the board reading {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} {k-Spades} on the turn, Ruoyang Wang checked. Ryan Fee bet 7,000, and Wang check-raised to 25,000. Fee called.

The river was the {6-Hearts}, and Wang checked. Fee thought for a moment, then announced an all in for 53,300. Wang deliberated for quite a while and eventually said he just couldn't fold such a big hand. He called, and Fee tabled {4-Spades}{8-Spades} for a straight. Wang flashed his hand to Fee and he said, "I was really lucky."

Sam Stein Extends Chip Lead over Cary Katz

Level 15 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

With the blinds still at 500/1,000 in this match, Katz raised to 2,200 on the button. Sam Stein called in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, and both players checked. On the {3-Hearts} turn, Stein bet 3,200, Katz made it 6,700, and Stein called. The river was the {Q-Clubs}, and Stein bet 16,500. Katz folded and said, "Good river."

Stein apparently showed Katz a bluff. "You showed me a bluff, I had to show you one," he said.

"A bluff?" Katz asked after seeing the flashed cards.

"I decided I was going to bluff a club river," he told Katz as he collected the pot.
