Cheung More Than Doubles While Sending Karr to the Rail

McLean Karr
McLean Karr

Mori Eskandani opened for 1,500 under the gun only to have McLean Karr shove all in for approximately 11,000 from the hijack. Fung Cheung was next to act in the cutoff and she promptly moved all in herself for 31,350. Eskandani asked for a count and then put in a call.

Showdown
Karr: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Eskandani: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Cheung: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

Cheung had the best of it and was never in any serious trouble as the board ran out {7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. With that, an unhappy Karr ran out of gas.
