Big Face Up River Fold for Cheong

Level 3 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Joseph Cheong and Isaac Haxton have had a friendly rivalry for much of the day and that continued during a recent hand. We arrived at the action on the river of a {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs} board and Haxton had jammed for his remaining 559,000. That amount was well over a pot-sized bet and Cheong went deep into the tank.

Eventually Cheong gave a loud sort of sigh and slammed down his {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} face up to send the pot to Haxton.

Cheong is still crushing on well over 2 million, while for pretty much the first time today Haxton is up over the starting stack.
