Wang Blows Up to Vault Pertea Into Big Stack

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The board was all but rushed away while Hong Wang had to forfeit the vast majority of his stack to Marius Pertea, paying off the 88,000 of the 2017 Unibet Open Bucharest champion.

On a board of {J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, Wang had put his hopes on the turn on pocket tens for a pair and a gutshot, but Pertea's {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} held up thanks to the blank queen on the river. Wang was not covered just yet, but had very few chips left and busted right after.
