Dong Takes Early Hit, Song Profits
We caught WPT National Korea High Roller champion embroiled in a sizable pot against table mate Jianzhong Song with over 6,000 already in the middle of the table on the turn with the community cards reading .
Song had just checked the action over to Dong, who looked torn between betting and checked. After a couple of minutes in the tank Dong decided to play it safe and check it back and the dealer burned and turned the river to pair the board.
Song checked it over to Dong once more, who clearly thought something was up and checked it right back. Dong was right and Song turned over for a flopped set that had improved to a boat.
Dong gave a big sigh and folded, but whatever he had the Chinese player dodged a bullet there by checking it back. Dong dropped to 25,000 while Song had evidently been busy and raked in the pot to climb to 52,200.
