Set Propels Eisenberg Up the Leaderboard
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Joshua Eisenberg in the cutoff was involved in a hand with Yanfeng Wang in the big blind as well as Aurelijus Sipavicius in early position.
With the board reading A♥6♣9♥2♠ Wang bet 7,500. Sipavicius called but Eisenberg responded by moving all in for 55,500. Wang thought long and hard before re-jamming, forcing Sipavicius out of the hand.
Joshua Eisenberg: 6♥6♠ 
Yanfeng Wang: A♠9♠
Eisenberg was in a commanding position with his set and managed to hold on the 8♠ river to secure more than a double up at the expense of Wang.
