Choi Takes One Down

Korea’s Kwangyeop Choi opened the action from early position with a raise to 525 and action folded around to Michael Falcon on the button (who is on his second bullet already) who called.

However, when the action got around to big blind Akash Chandrashekhar the Indian player squeezed to 2,200 in total. That did not quite have the desired effect of thinning the field as both Choi and Falcon called.

Chandrashekhar led for 2,500 on the flop and Choi reached for raising chips, making it 7,500 to go, which brought speedy folds from both Falcon and Chandrashekhar.
