Cheong Makes a Good Lay Down

Joseph Cheong, recent third-place finished in the WSOP Main Event, is in action today. However, his NAPT Los Angeles debut is not going nearly as well as his WSOP did. Cheong has been nursing a short stack for the past couple levels.

In a recent hand, there was about 8,000 in the pot and a board reading {Q-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Cheong had checked to his sole opponent in Seat 6 who bet 3,625. Cheong had a total of 7,250 behind and tanked for a bit. He ultimately decided to fold and Seat 6 was kind enough to show him {A-Spades}{J-Clubs} for a flopped Broadway straight.
