Cheng Smacks the River to Bust Min
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Nan Min and Michael Cheng went to the turn on a board of 2♦Q♦7♦9♥. Cheng then bet 80,000 from the cutoff and Min moved all in for around 250,000 in middle position. Cheng called.
Both players showed the same hand, Min with J♣10♣ and Cheng with J♦10♠, as they were poised to chop the pot. The river, though, brought the 3♦ to give Cheng a flush and send Min to the rail.
