Failla Finishes Atop the Leaderboard, But He's Lamenting the Chips He Didn't Earn
Will Failla bagged up 3,300,000 to end Day 1e, but he still wasn't satisfied. "I should have 4 million," he said as he recounted a hand he played against Lingyu Zen.
According to Failla, he opened to 65,000 before Zen three-bet to 200,000. Failla called, and the flop came eight-high with two spades. Both players checked, and a second three came on the turn. Failla then bet 200,000, and Zen called.
The river was a queen and Failla bet 500,000. Zen called and turned over two kings, but Failla had two aces. "I almost threw up," Failla said as he took the pot which could've been a lot bigger.
