Tang Turns it Around - Again

Gary Tang hasn't been shy about playing hands. In the last hand before the break, Walter Wright raised to 60,000 from under-the-gun and Tang called from the big blind.

Tang then check-raised Wright to 200,000 on a flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. After the call, both players checked the {3-Diamonds} on the turn and Tang check-called Wright's 175,000 chip bet when the {9-Clubs} hit the river.

Tang turned over {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for top pair and lost the hand when Wright tabled pocket aces.
