Cheong Staying Alive

We managed to catch up to Joseph Cheong's table to find him all in for his tournament life. We don't know exactly how the action went, but Jordan Smith was the one willing to deliver the knock out blow. Cards were then tabled.

Cheong: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}
Smith: {A-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

A {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop brought no hope to Smith, as he found himself trailing even further. A {4-Clubs} turn and a {5-Diamonds} river sealed the deal, and Cheong doubled up putting him self at almost 50,000.
