After a flop of Qh6s3h, Stanley Wang bet 200,000 from the big blind, and Nelson Resendiz thought for a while before he called from the cutoff.

The turn card was the 8s, Wang bet 360,000, and Resendiz once again thought fora while before he called.

The river card was the 2d, and Wang thought for a long time before he checked. Resendiz thought for a while himself before he checked behind.

Wang showed Jh10s for jack high, and Resendiz turned over Ah6h to win the pot worth well over a million in chips with a pair of sixes to take the chip lead.

Nelson Resendiz  –  1,710,000  (57 bb)
Stanley Wang  –  980,000  (33 bb)
