Ong Cripples Wu, Lee Administers Coup de Grace
Manila Megastack 7 champion Po-Yi Wu opened the action with a raise from mid-position and Jun Yi Ong moved all-in from the small blind. Wu made a speedy call and the cards were turned over.
Po-Yi Wu:
Jun Yi Ong:
Wu had Ong covered and the best pre-flop hand. Unfortunately for Wu the flop came down to give Ong a lead he would not relinquish and while the turn gave Wu some additional outs the river was not one of them and he was left with a paltry 1,600 while Ong stacked up to 43,000.
Wu was all in the next hand for the last of his chips with a player in mid-position making the call before Alex Lee offered the Taiwanese player some protection with a raise to 5,500 from the big blind to fold out the caller.

Alex Lee:
Wu��s fate was decided by a good old-fashioned race, though unfortunately for the Taiwanese player it was one he lost when the board ran out to pair Lee��s king on the turn. Wu headed for the rail while Lee stacked up to 74,000.
