Wong Winning
Macau’s Keng Po Wong has edged into an early lead, though he already had a sizable stack when we caught him in action against tablemate Yuchin Zhing.
We picked up the action on a flop of 
with 3,000 already in the pot and it appears Wong had decided to peel off a flop from the small blind against a Zhing button open.
Wong led for 1,000 and Zhing announced a raise, making it 2,500 to go in total. Wong called and the dealer burned and turned the 
to pair the board. There was no betting on this street with Wong checking and Zhing checking it right back.
The 
river saw Wong reach for chips once more and he fired for 2,000, which Zhing called after thinking it over for a few seconds. Wong turned over 
for rivered trip tens and Zhing threw his cards into the muck. Wong climbed to 57,000 making him one of the larger stacks, if not the largest stack, while Zhing dropped to 23,200.
