Queens Good For Tan

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

India’s Keshav Chadha opened the action with a raise to 550 from under-the-gun with neighbour Gay Peng Tan making the call. Action folded around to Kai Loon Ang, sitting in the cutoff, who decided to play his position aggressively and re-raised to 2,600 in total.

While this was enough to get Chadha to bow out Tan was going nowhere and he threw in a quick call to take play heads-up to a flop of {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}.

Tan check-called Ang’s 3,200 continuation bet and both players checked the {k-Hearts} turn. The {5-Clubs} river completed a possible club flush and saw Tan check for a third time and Ang decided to take a stab at the pot for 6,100.

“Snap call!” said Tan while snap calling and a sheepish Ang turned over {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for ace-high meaning Tan’s {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} were good enough to take down the pot.

“You should never try to bluff a fish,” Tan needled Ang as he stacked up his newly won chips, though Ang still has plenty in his stack.
