Wrong River for Wong

Before the flop, Danny Wong raised from middle position to 4,400, Ariel Schneller reraised to 16,500, and Wong called.

Wong checked the flop of {6-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}. Schneller bet 16,000, Wong check-raised all in for about 40,000, and Schneller made the call.

Both players had flopped top pair, but Wong's {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} had him just ahead of Schneller's {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. The {3-Hearts} on the turn changed nothing, but the {9-Diamonds} on the river gave the hand to Schneller. Wong is out, and Schneller is up to 226,000.
