Two quick and massive hands have seen the rise of Joshua Lachman (pictured) and the dramatic fall of Grant Wang.

First, Sohale Khalili raises to 25,000 in middle positon and gets a call from Wang. Lachman then three-bets to 115,000 in the big blind which gets a fold from Khalili, but Wang then moves all in and Lachman calls off his remaining 345,000 chips.

Just a couple of hands later, Wang raises to 21,000 in middle position and gets three-bet to 75,000 by Lachman on the button. Wang then four-bets to 150,000 and Lachman calls.
