Dong Flops Everything
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
The Q♠6♥3♠ flop was on the felt, and Paul Saso had a bet of 65,000 already in front of him but was faced with a raise of 250,000 from Ruomeng Dong. After being in the tank for a little over a minute, he called off his stack of about 200,000.
Paul Saso: A♦A♣J♠3♣ 
Ruomeng Dong: A♠Q♦Q♥8♠
Saso's aces were in trouble as Dong flopped top set and the nut flush draw. The 4♦ turn and the 6♠ river improved Dong to a full house as Saso exited the table.
