Lang Vo has won Event #9 of the Ante Up World Championship at Thunder Valley Casino in Lincoln, Calif.
Vo earned $52,968 after a nine-way deal in the $460 buy-in Monolith, which shattered the $250,000 guarantee with 1,472 entries over four flights for a prize pool of $588.800.
Vo came into Day with just 136,000 in units, a tenth of what chipleader James Turner brough to the table, but Vo chipped up nicely and sat in fourth place when at the 27-player redraw.
With 16 players to go, Vo shoved his final 1.5 million in chips with As-Qh and was called by Joe Walker’s pocket aces. Walker flopped a set, but Vo flopped three to a flush, and completed the flush on the river to move to 3.2 million.
