Lamb Shoves on Yong

Level 3 : 0/0, 2,000 ante

Picking up action on a flop of {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, Richard Yong was under the gun and he checked. Ben Lamb was the only other player in the hand and he put out a bet of 35,000. Yong called.

The turn was the {Q-Hearts} and Yong checked again. Lamb moved all in for a roughly pot-sized shove of 112,000. Yong thought for a bit then folded his {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for top pair. Lamb on the other end was bluffing with his {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs} for third pair and a gutshot straight draw, allowing him to take down the pot.

Cheong Catches Leow's Bluff

Level 4 : 0/0, 2,000 ante

Cheong Cheok Ieng and Ivan Leow were heads-up on the {J-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{6-Diamonds} turn with 56,000 in the pot. Cheong led out 50,000 with {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and Leow called in position with {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} for a double-gutter.

The river was the {A-Clubs} and Cheong checked. Leow used the ace to try to steal the pot and quickly bluff-shoved for 72,000. Cheong had him just covered and spent some time contemplating his decision. Ultimately, he took a pile of his chips and pushed it forward, making a good call. Leow reloaded.

In a four-way limped pot, Nick Schulman was on the button with {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, looking at a promising flop of {J-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}. Peter Jetten bet 10,000 with {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} and Schulman was the only player who called.

Wai Yong Scoops Three-Way All-in

Level 4 : 0/0, 2,000 ante
Wai Kin Yong
Wai Kin Yong

The outer table saw three players place their stack towards the middle preflop with Yeu Wei Hsiang holding {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}. His neighbor Siow Choon Tong turned up {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} and Wai Kin Yong joined the party with {10-Spades}{9-Spades}.

The flop rolled out {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{K-Clubs} and Yong asked for an eight. He got a {10-Clubs} instead and gained the lead. Yong sweated the river, hoping to see a brick and the {K-Hearts} was a great card for him as he remained the winner, claiming the whole pot, having both of his rivals covered. Yeu and Siow both fired new bullets.

Potashnik Folds Top Two

Level 4 : 0/0, 2,000 ante

Cheong Cheok Ieng limped in with {Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, Peter Jetten overlimed in the hijack with {K-Hearts}{J-Spades} and Ivan Leow made it 15,000 in the cutoff, holding {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. Button Brian Potashnik also peeled suited connectors and called with {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and both Cheong and Jetten also continued to the flop.

The dealer spread out {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Leow shoved his last 61,000. Potashnik flopped top two pair but he decided to lay his hand down, allowing Leow to claim the pot as Cheong and Jetten weren't impressed by the flop.

Ivan Leow raised with {7-Spades}{6-Spades} before Brian Potashnik shoved for 58,000 in the cutoff, peeling {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}.

Leow made a flush on the {Q-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs} board and raked in the pot. Schulman was left with 238,000 and Potashnik fired a new bullet.
