Wong Doubles Through Bronshtein

Danny Wong

Jeremy Ausmus opened for 320,000 from middle position and Yuval Bronshtein called from the hijack seat. It folded to Danny Wong in the small blind who pushed all in for about 4 million total. Ausmus folded quickly, but Bronshtein took some time to think about the situation.

He sat for a couple of minutes, riffling chips and looking across from Seat 8 to Seat 3 where the hoodie-wearing Wong sat with his head resting on crossed arms. Finally Bronshtein called.

Wong: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Bronshtein: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The flop came {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}{J-Diamonds} — not good for Bronshtein, and great for Wong. The turn was the {A-Diamonds}, and Bronshtein was hoping for another ace or the case jack to show for a chop. The dealer then burned a card and turned over the river… the {3-Hearts}. Wong survived with the double up.
