Wong Wins With an Eight
Level 22
: Limits 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Paul Hunter raised on the button and Danny Wong three-bet from the small blind. Lawrence Brandt called cold in the big blind and Hunter called as well.
Wong and Hunter each drew one on the first draw and Brandt took two off. Wong bet and both Brandt and Hunter called.
Wong stood pat on the second draw, while Brandt drew two and Hunter drew one. Wong bet again and again both Brandt and Hunter called.
On the final draw, Wong remained pat and Brandt and Hunter each took one. Action checked down and Hunter revealed he had drawn to a queen. Wong tabled 8x6x5x4x3x and Brandt mucked — sending the pot Wong’s way.
