Phanlert Busts Wong
Nick Wong’s High Roller has come to a speedy conclusion at the hands of Phanlert Sukonthachartnant and we arrived just in time to catch the Hong Kong player’s demise.
We caught the action on the flop with the board reading 
just as Sukonthachartnant checked the action over to Wong, who led out for 3,500 into a pot of around 8,000.
Sukonthachartnant obviously had a plan for the hand as the Thai player quickly check-raised to 9,500 in total. Wong did not take long before shoving the last of his 30,000 chips into the middle and Sukonthachartnant quickly called.
Nick Wong: 
Sukonthachartnant Phanlert: 
While he may have had the best hand pre-flop Wong had been hugely out-flopped by Sukonthachartnant who was holding top pair and the diamond flush draw, which promptly came in when the 
hit the turn to leave Wong drawing dead.
The 
river was merely a formality and Wong hit the rail, while Sukonthachartnant stacked up to 175,000 to shoot into pole position as current chip leader.
