Tang Bombs River

Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The board read {5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs} on the river with a pot of 26,000 in the middle. From the cutoff Danny Tang bet more than twice the pot as he put out 60,500.

Paul Phua was in the small blind and slammed down a couple of time banks and thought it out. He acted perplexed by the bet by making some comments and was able to get Tang to break his composure for a second by busting out laughing during the tank.

Eventually, Phua folded and Tang gathered the pot.

Antonius Gets Up

Level 9 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action was on the river with the board having ran out {3-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. It was a blind on blind battle as Patrik Antonius had bet on both the flop and turn from the small blind was called both times by Danny Tang in the big blind.

On the river, Antonius bet 18,000 and this time Tang jammed all in. Antonius went into the tank as he was covered. He used up all his time banks before eventually calling as his final time extension wound down.

Tang tabled the {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for two pair, which Antonius had the no good {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and he was busted shortly after sitting down.
