Wang's Big Hero Call Rewarded
Level 33
: 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Piotr Nurzynski limped in with the 
in the small blind and Haoxiang Wang checked with the 
in the big blind. Nurzynski check-raised the 
flop from 325,000 to 1.1 million and Wang called.
On the 
turn, Nurzynski bet 2.4 million and Wang called with his top pair and gutshot. The 
fell on the river and Nurzynski used one time bank extension to decide on his third barrel, then made it 4.5 million to go.
Wang cut out calling chips and checked his remaining stack, then used one time bank himself to think through the hand. Wang called and Nurzynski shook his head, showing his bluff.
Wang won the big pot and jumped into a commanding lead, while Nurzynski dropped back into the second spot.
