Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

On a flop of 2?6?Q?, Evan Benton under the gun bet 335,000 and he was called by Guofeng Wang in the big blind.

Both of them checked the Q? turn to find the 2? river, where Wang led out for 650,000.

Benton eventually made the call, but his cards went into the muck when Wang turned over 7?6? for two pair.
