Wong's Mighty Stack Dented
A player in middle position opened to 12,000, and Jerry Wong called a couple seats over. Action came around to Kyle Keranan in the blinds, and he squeezed in a reraise to 45,000 total. That folded the initial raiser, but Wong reraised all in with his massive stack. Keranen instantly called, and his was flipping against the mighty of Wong.
The flop was a big miss for Keranen, and the turn was only a little bit of help. It did give him another three outs to the win, and as it turned out, that's just what he needed. The dropped off the deck on the river, and Wong's counterfeit three pair are worthless. He's forced to pay off a 253,500-chip double up, knocking him down to 448,000.
With that big double comes the chip lead for Keranan, shooting his way past the field and up to about 525,000.
