Tong Extends Chip Lead
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Stud-8
Tong: / /
Gorodinsky: / /
Kristopher Tong brought in with the nine, and Gorodinsky completed with the jack. Tong made the call, and he proceeded to call another bet on fourth street. The two players both knuckled on fifth and sixth street, and on seventh, Tong fired out. Gorodinsky peaked down at his hole cards a few times before sending them to the dealer, dropping him to 500,000 in the process.
Meanwhile, Tong is starting to distance himself from the other two, sitting on 1.6 million, which is over half the chips in play.
