Matthew Widdoes opens to 50,000 and is immediately three-bet by Cody Wiegmann to 190,000, who in turn is four-bet to 315,000 by Yunkyu Song. 

Widdoes then five-bet jams for 450,000 total and Wiegmann goes deep into the tank. He then proceeds to use four time banks before he eventually announces a fold and the action is then back on Song who quickly calls.

Widdoes: Diamond QHeart Q
Song: Heart 10Club 10

Widdoes is well in the lead going into this battle, but the flop of Club JClub 4Heart 10 is not his friend as it gives Song a set of tens for a big lead. The turn Heart 8 doesn’t help Widdoes, but the Club Q on the river sure does as it gives him top set of queens to take down the big pot for the double. 

Matthew Widdoes – 1,100,000 (44 bb)
Yunkyu Song – 2,200,000 (88 bb)
Cody Wiegmann – 800,000 (32 bb)
