No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw
Wong opened to 100,000 from first position and was three-bet to 400,000 by Strebkov on the button.
Wong then went deep into the tank before moving all-in for a little under 1.3 million chips.
Of note, Shanmukha Meruga was in the small blind with just 60,000 chips, so this bet meant business with potential payout implications.
Strebkov thought for about three minutes before ultimately folding and returning some of the chips from the previous hand to Wong.
