Charles in Charge

[user75032]

Just as the final table was starting to become hypnotic for a lack of action, two players wound up all in. Charles "the Chuck Truck" Chua opened the betting by raising to 29,000. Nam Le reraised, causing Chua to quickly push all in. Le called just as quickly and the hands were opened.

Le: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

Chua:

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

Chua was once again at risk of elimination, but as he has several other times today, he staved it off when the board came nine-high, {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

{9-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

. That pot doubled Chua up to 352,000 and brought Le back closer to the pack at about 500,000.
