Moore Cracks Cheong's Kings

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

From middle position, Kyle Cheong opened with a raise to 45,000. Action folded to Chris Moore in the big blind, and he reraised all in for 260,000. Cheong quickly called and rolled over the {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}. Moore was behind with the {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}.

The {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop gave Moore the lead with a set of sevens. The {5-Diamonds} on the turn left Cheong needed a king on the river to win the hand or a four to chop. The river was the {5-Hearts}, though, and Moore improved to a full house.
More importantly, he maintained his lead gained on the flop and doubled up. Cheong was left with 229,000.
