Cao Wins Big

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

James Mitchell, recent WSOP bracelet winner Preston Lee, and Ngoc Anh Cao are seated at the same table.

The board read {2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{q-Hearts}{k-Spades}{8-Clubs} with quite a lot of chips in the pot already. Both Cao (mid-position) and Lee (hijack) had checked. The player in the cutoff bet 48,000 and after considering his options for a while, Cao called. Lee quickly folded. The cutoff showed {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the missed flush-draw and Cao quickly flipped over {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for the turned top two pair to take down the pot.
