Buddiga and Yong Battle
Level 6
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Jack Salter had lost a lot of chips against Pratyush Buddiga and the latter took on dominating chip leader Wai Kin Yong in yet another big pot before paying off the defending champion soon after.
Salter opened to 6,500 and Buddiga called in the hijack. Yong three-bet to 24,500 in the big blind and found Buddiga as sole caller. On the 
flop, Yong continued for 18,000 and Buddiga looked him up before the 
fell on the turn. Now Yong checked and called a bet of 65,000 by Buddiga before checking the 
river.
Buddiga made it 125,000 to go with around 220,000 behind and Yong folded.
The revenge would follow soon after. Yong bet the river of a board 
for 40,000 and Buddiga called only to get shown 
for a full house by Yong.
