The Chuck Truck Doubles Again

Charles Chua

Andrew Scott was the first person in the pot, raising to 22,000 from under the gun. He was called by Quinn Do from the small blind before Charles Chua put on the squeeze by raising all in from the big blind for a total of 148,000. After a minute in the tank, Quinn called.

Chua: {10-Clubs} {4-Spades}
Do: {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}

"Charles in a bit of a bother here," said Tournament Director Danny McDonagh. It was an understatement, but really Chua's hand was no worse than if he had moved in with {A-Clubs} {4-Spades}.

The flop was {9-Hearts} {2-Spades} {5-Hearts}, no help to Chua, but he hit his gin card on the turn with the {10-Spades}. Only an eight could eliminate Chua on the river, and it didn't happen. The river was the {3-Hearts}, and Chua's magical run of the last week and a half continues. Ten four, good buddy.
