Andy Hwang

Jesse Lonis opened to 500,000 from under the gun, Francis Margaglione called next to act, and Andy Hwang followed with a shove for 2,700,000. Lonis folded and chip leader Margaglione called.

Margaglione: 7d7c
Hwang: AcKh

Margaglione was ahead and Hwang needed to improve to stay in the game. The board ran out 3s2s2h6dQd, Margaglione’s sevens held, and Hwang fell short of his second WPT title.

Francis Margaglione – 18,575,000 (93 bb)
