Ng Calls McKeehen's Bluff With Pocket Pair

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Three players went to a flop of {2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs}. From early position, Joe McKeehen bet 120,000. Christopher Ng raised to 440,000 and Lanny Vaysman folded the big blind. McKeehen called.

The turn was the {5-Spades}. Ng led for 325,000. McKeehen called.

The river came the {k-Spades} to bring in three spades. McKeehen jammed all in to force Ng to make a decision for his tournament life.

"If this is how I go... I don't get it." said Ng who appeared to be a bit aggravated and he called after just a few seconds.

McKeehen tabled nothing with the {a-Spades}{9-Hearts} while Ng had a pair with the {7-Clubs}{7-Spades} which was good to gather the huge double.

Ng continued to talk it out as the table sat in silence, seemingly a bit in shock of what they just saw.
