The small blind slowed down and checked the A♣ turn. Chen responded with a bet of 3,500.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A series of raises led to both players going all-in as the cutoff player clashed with Long Hoang in the small blind. Hoang had his opponent at risk as they went to a runout.

Opponent: A♣Q♥ All in
Long Hoang: J♦J♣

Hoang needed to fade the overcards, but any anxiety was quickly alleviated as the flop came 6♣3♠J♥ to put Hoang firmly in the lead with a set of jacks.

The 3♥ improved Hoang to a full house as his opponent got up from the table as the insignificant 4♣ river peeled off to complete the board.
