Wang Picks Off Yu, Seizes Lead
A sizable pot played out on the final table that saw Yang Wang and Li Yu battle it out for the chip lead, with Wang picking off a ballsy Yu triple barrel bluff.
Yu was the pre-flop raiser on the button, and while we missed the pre-flop betting, there was a lot. We picked up the action on the turn with the community cards spread 
just as Wang checked the action over to Yu on the button.
There was close to 500,000 in the pot, with Yu leading out for a half pot sized 250,000, which Wang called after an age in the think tank to swell the pot to over 1-million.
The 
river saw Wang check once more, and Yu reached for a tower of pink 25k chips, firing for 600,000. Wang agonized over the call, but eventually made it, with Yu pitching his cards into the muck the moment Wang called. Wang rolled over 
just to show he had it, climbing to 2.6 million to take the lead while Yu dropped to 1.65 million.
