Wong Finds a Double

Danny Wong
Danny Wong

The action folded to Michael Esposito, who opened to 700,000 on the button. Marc Ladouceur folded from the small blind, and Danny Wong called all in from the big blind.

Esposito: {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Wong: {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Wong threw a fist in the air when the flop fell {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, and he grabbed the lead with a pair of queens. The {7-Hearts} on the turn gave Esposito a flush draw however, and Wong had to dodge an ace, five, or heart on the river.

The {2-Spades} was a brick however, and Wong doubled to 1.57 million.
