Andrew Pantling

It was a quick and spectacular collapse for Andrew Pantling. After losing several recent pots, he found himself with less than 20,000 remaining. He opened for 3,000 from middle position. Action folded to Charles Chua in the small blind, who made it 10,000 to go. Pantling dutifully shipped in the rest of his chips and Chua made an easy call.

Pantling: {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{9-Spades}

Chua:

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

It was a reversal of fortune for Pantling when the flop came down {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

, but if he thought he would win the hand then he underestimated the powers of the Chuck Truck. Chua promptly spiked the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

on the turn, and there was no miracle nine for Pantling when the river fell {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

.

"The Chuck Truck is rolling again!" said Chua, collecting his 103,000 chips as Pantling headed for the rail.
