Cheng Chops Down Chan
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Hong Kong's Wing Kei Chan has just taken a hit at the hands of Sheng-Chien Cheng, who has been in the hot seat all day, despite a table move. Action was picked up on the river with over 150,000 already in the pot with the community cards spread 
.
It was Cheng the man first to act in the small blind, and after some deliberation, he led out for a tickly 58,000 bet. This sent Chan deep into thought, as should he call and lose he would be left with just 115,000. Eventually, he elected to call, tabling 
and discovered that he had just been rivered, with Cheng rolling over 
for two pair.
