Cheung Moves In
We caught up with the action to see Robert Cheung all in and waiting for a decision from his lone opponent. According to Cheung, several players saw the flop and one of those players led for 1,800. Cheung raised the action to 4,000 only to have the same player come back over the top to 11,000.
Cheung then decided to four-bet all in which was a bet that caused his opponent to let go of his hand. Cheung is now sitting on about 36,000.

Pang Pushes
We found Matthew Pang heads up in a pot with the board reading 
. Pang's opponent bet 3,100 out of the small blind only to have Pang raise to 7,800. His opponent called and the two were off to see the final card.
The dealer produced the 
on the river and Pang's opponent checked. Pang moved all of his purple t5,000 chips into the center which was a bet that was enough to put his opponent all in. With about 13,000 behind, his opponent opted to let go of his hand, awarding Pang the pot. Pang is currently sitting on about 57,000 in chips.

Three Bullets Not Enough For Affleck

Not Looking Good For Affleck
The board read 
and there were two checks to Matt Affleck who fired 1,400. The player in the blinds slid out a check-raise to 6,000 and the third player folded. Affleck tanked for a while before decided to flat call.
The
