Willis Takes Chip Lead from Wang
It didn��t take long for heads-up play to heat up.
Just a few hands into the competition, Michael Wang and Daniel Willis were involved in a large pot, which swung the balance to Willis at the end.
Wang peeked down at A?K? and raised 2,500,000, which Willis called holding 10?4?.
The dealer fanned an action flop of 6?A?7?, giving Wang top pair with top kicker, while Willis flopped a flush draw. Wang bet 3,500,000, only to see Willis check-call the action.
Then, it got interesting on the turn after the dealer placed 2? on the board.
Willis checked, and Wang bet 7,500,000. Willis responded with a check-raise to 16,500,000. Wang took his time before announcing an all-in bet, which covered his opponent��s stack.
Willis snap-called and tabled his flush, which had Wang drawing dead.
The 8? didn��t change the outcome of the hand, but the 69,600,000 pot gave Willis the chip lead and left Wang with 17,700,000.
