Cheong Ships From the Small Blind

Action folded around to Joseph Cheong in the small blind and he simply moved all in to put the pressure on the short-stacked Joe Kuether, who ended up calling off for 56,500 total.

Showdown
Kuether: {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Cheong: {Q-Clubs}{3-Spades}

The {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop was kind to Kuether as it paired his ace and gave him a big lead. The {3-Diamonds} turn was pause for concern as Cheong picked up a gut-shot straight draw, but there was no need to worry as the {7-Diamonds} peeled off on the river.
