Niveau 40
: Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante
Will Linden limped in on the button and Pengfei Wang opted to check.
It went check-check on the 2♠3♥9♣ flop to the 5♠ on the turn. Wang contemplated his bet size and decided to barrel a bet of 5,000,000 out. Linden responded with a shove for 14,300,000 for Wang to make the call quickly.
Will Linden: J♠4♠
Pengfei Wang: 9♦4♦
Linden had risked his tournament life with the open-ended straight draw and flush draw while Wang was sitting on the same open-ended straight draw and a pair of nines.
The river completed the board with the 7♣ to not change things as Wang jumped in the air, and his rail erupted in cheers as Wang had just won the tournament for $270,700 while Linden added $167,339 to his bank roll.
