Level 21
: 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
David Ong opened to 55,000 from middle position and Joe Nguyen and Benjamin Garrick defended from the blinds.
The flop came out 3?4?J? and action checked to Ong who continued for 55,000 but then Nguyen check-raised to 135,000 and Garrick quickly folded.
After some pause, Ong made the call and they went heads-up to the turn 2?. Nguyen led out for 150,000 and Ong made the call once again to see the river fall the 10?.
Nguyen fired again for 200,00 and Ong went into the tank for around 30 seconds before he decided to toss in his cards and the pot was awarded to Nguyen.
