Boivin Puts the Pressure on Cheong

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Joseph Cheong opened to 1,800 in the hijack and Thomas Boivin three-bet to 6,200 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Cheong who called to see a flop of KJ4.

Cheong checked to Boivin who continued with a bet of 3,700 and Cheong called. The turn brought the 2 and Cheong checked again. Boivin threw in a larger bet of 20,000 this time and Cheong was forced to muck his cards.
