Cheong Shoves River
![[user252447]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Level 24
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Gabriel Le Jossec opened for 43,000 on the button and got called by small blind Joseph Cheong and big blind Zuo 'ST' Wang.
All three players checked the 
flop and when the 
hit the felt on the turn Cheong bet 80,000 and Wang made the call but Le Jossec folded.
The river card 
meant there was straight and flush possibilities and Cheong moved all in, covering Wang. Wang looked a bit surprised by this development and took several minutes, including a few looks back at his hole cards, before he mucked his hand.

More For Barer

: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Gabriel Le Jossec popped it up to 40,000 before the flop and found a call from Ami Barer in the big blind. The flop came down 
and Barer check-called a bet of 50,000 from Le Jossec.

and Barer checked once more. Le Jossec continued his aggression by betting 95,000. Barer called, the 
hit the river, and both players checked.
Barer tabled 
for jacks and nines to take down the pot. His stack has increased to about 1.6 million while Le Jossec's dropped to around 1.05 million.

Barer Chipping Up
Level 24
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Ami Barer has been picking up quite a few pots in the last few hands, opening for a minimum 40,000 and either getting it through or taking it down post flop with a continuation bet.
One that didn’t go his way was when Barer opened for 40,000, Gabriel Le Jossec called and Zuo 'ST' Wang moved all in from the big blind.

Jung Bests Barer
Level 24
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Ami Barer opened to 40,000 from the cutoff only to have Sunny Jung three-bet the action to 160,000 from the button. The blinds folded and Barer called to see a flop.

and Barer check-called a continuation bet of 140,000. Both players checked the 
on the turn and the 
on the river, prompting Jung to show a winning 
for a pair of tens. With this win, Jung's stack has increased to about 2.9 million.
