Joseph Cheong

HAND #33  –  Jordan Fisch raised from the cutoff to 220,000, Sean Winter reraised from the big blind to 9000,000, and Fisch folded. Winter took the pot.


HAND #34  –  Joseph Cheong moved all in from the cutoff for 615,000, taking the blinds and ante.


HAND #35  –  Joseph Cheong moved all in from the hijack for 815,000, and Shalom Elharrar called from the small blind with 10d10c.

Cheong turned over Ah6d, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came As9c8dJh4h — Cheong paired his ace on the flop, Elharrar turned an open-ended straight draw, and the river card was a blank. Cheong won the pot with a pair of aces to double up in chips.
