Vogelsang Chips Up; Yong and Tang Win Pots
On the tail end of a bigger pot between Anatoly Filatov and Christoph Vogelsang, the former faced a bet of 750,000 and eventually released his cards into the muck. As a result, Filatov dropped well below the starting stack while Vogelsang continued to climb.
In the very next hand, Dominik Nitsche opened to 90,000 and Richard Yong made the call on the button.
"How much did you start with?" Danny Tang in the big blind inquired.
"Less than four," Nitsche replied and Tang called swiftly after. The 
flop was checked to Yong and a bet of 100,000 was called by Tang only. The 
turn was checked by Tang and a bet of 300,000 by Yong instantly won the pot.
Vogelsang then opened the button to 65,000 and Tang called in the small blind, Chin Wei Lim did so from the big blind. Tang check-raised a 70,000-continuation bet of Vogelsang on the 
flop to claim the pot without resistance.
