All Change at the Top
Anson Tsang and Zhong Yuan Hang have just played a massive pot that has seen the chip lead change hands, though not quite in the way you imagine.
We only arrived in time to catch the aftermath as the stacks were being counted down but Tsang was kind enough to fill us in on the details.
Hang had opened the action with a raise and Tsang tried to leverage his monster stack and re-raised in position, with Hang making the call to take play heads-up to a flop of 
and this is where the fireworks happened.
Hang now led out for a pot-sized bet, Tsang continued the aggression with a raise and Hang did not take long to get the rest of his sizable 860,000 stack into the pot and with chips to spare Tsang made the call and the cards were turned over.
Zhong Yuan Hang: 
Anson Tsang: 
While Hang had top pair he would need to fade Tsang’s hearts and did so when the 
turn and 
river completed the hand. Tsang took a big hit and dropped to 1.7 million while Hang climbed to a little over two million.
This now makes Longyun Li our current chip leader as he has a stack of 2.3 million currently.
