Hang in the Hot Seat to Seize Lead
Zhong Yuan Hang has just doubled up again through Michael Soyza, with the Chinese player enjoying the rub of the green at present.
Pre-flop Hang was on the button and made it 300,000 to go. Soyza, sitting in the small blind, squeezed his cards and then reached for chips, but they were not for calling with.
Soyza slid out two towers of pink 25k chips for a re-raise of 1 million in total, Hang snap shoved all-in over the top and was called instantly by Soyza.
Zhong Yuan Hang: 
Michael Soyza: 
Hang was not in good shape, finding himself a 3-1 underdog and the 
was not a particularly helpful one. However, like a thunderbolt from the poker gods, the 
landed on the turn to give Hang top pair with a backdoor spade flush draw. The river was the 
and Hang��s rail went mental.
Hang stacked up to 6.4 million while Soyza calmly counted down a portion of his monster stack and shipped it over to Hang to drop to 4.9 million.
