Jiang Picks Off Huang
Level 16
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With the board reading 
and 80,000 already in the pot in a heads-up hand between Vincent Huang and Honglin Jiang, Huang had checked the action over to Jiang, who fired for 30,000. Huang called and the dealer burned and turned the 
.
The action went check, check and the river came down 
. This saw Huang take a stab for a sizable 180,000 and Jiang hit the think tank. Eventually, he dropped in a single green 25k chip to represent the call and the cards were revealed.
Huang showed 
for ace-high but was behind to Jiang's 
rivered trips. Huang dropped down to 150,000 after that little misadventure, which Jiang is riding high on 800,000.
