Carlos Chadha Eliminated in 2nd Place ($184,599)
Carlos Chadha: 8x2x / Ax6x9x4x / Kx
Jerry Wong: 10x4x / 2x7x6x9x / 3x
Carlos Chadha completed with an ace showing and Jerry Wong called. Both caught more low runouts on fourth street and Chadha bet, Wong called. The lead changed on fifth street when Wong bet his seven-six, and Chadha called.
After sixth street, Chadha bet and had just 180,000 behind. "Let's go," Wong murmured as he put in the raise and Chadha called all-in with both players vaulting out of their chairs.
Once the first six cards were exposed, Wong told his rail "I am drawing to a seven, guys,". Chadha failed to improve with a king as his final card and Wong simply flipped over his final card, which was a trey as he got there.
Chadha has been eliminated in second place and takes home $184,599 while Wong finally wins his first WSOP gold bracelet, taking home the top prize of $298,682.
