Wang Builds a Stack
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Grant Wang in middle position and Michael Lee in the big blind were at a 2♠A♣3♣ flop when Wang raised the stakes to 9,000.
Lee called taking them to a 7♠ turn.
Both players checked to the 7♦ river and Lee bet 16,000 which got a snap-call from Wang.
Lee showed pocket tens which were up against Wang's pocket jacks. Wang narrowly scooped the pot, building him up to sit on just over double starting stack.
Lee doubles up through Salim Admon just a couple of hands later.
