Wong Keeps Chipping Up
Level 18
: Limits 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Jerry Wong: XxXx / 9x2x3x
Carlos Chadha-Villamarin: XxXx / 6x8x9x folded on fifth street
Brad Ruben: XxXx / 4xQx10x folded on fifth street
While starting with the worst of it on third street, Jerry Wong claimed yet another three-way pot and pushed his stack towards seven figures. Carlos Chadha-Villamarin bet fourth to get calls from Brad Ruben and Wong, who then bet fifth. Chadha-Villamarin tank-folded and Ruben let go.
In the next heads-up pot against Wong, Ruben lost another chunk when he was forced out on seven street when his 4x3x10xQx board faced he 4x6x4xAx of Wong, who showed a bluff.
