Danny Tang has been steadily chipping up since the bubble burst yesterday on Day 2, but he now seems to be moving into the top ten chip-stacks, so we caught up with him to find out how it happened.
"It was a really big pot, actually," Tang told us, "I raised to 9,000 from under the gun. Only the big blind called me and the flop came . I c-bet 8,000 and he check-raised me to 27,000. I called. The turn comes an off-suit four, no flush draw. He bets 55,000 and I call. On the river, he goes all-in for 160,000 and I have to tank - it's a huge amount. If I call and I'm wrong, I'm down to twenty big blinds and it's a different tournament all of a sudden. I spotted a live tell and made the call and he had ; he'd had an open-straight draw from the flop and turned a pair. I had and 610,000 now."
Danny sits back down quick enough to see the next cards. He's a big chip leader at the table now and looks keen to exert as much pressure as possible on his opponents.
