Big Double for Dang, Pechac Short
We've had a huge chip swing here, ending with start-of-day chip leader Debbie Pechac suddenly becoming the short stack with four players left.
The hand began with an under-the-gun raise to 30,000 by Yen Dang. It folded to Pechac in the small blind who made it 100,000 to go, and when it folded back to Dang she reraised again to 350,000. Pechac responded by pushing all in, and Dang — outchipped by Pechac by about 160,000 — called with her remaining stack.
