Chang Triples up
Level 8
: Blinds 25,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Daniel Cates opened to 10,000 from the cutoff and was called by Quan Zhou on the button and Nevan Chang in the big blind.
Chang checked to Cates, who continued for 10,000 on the 6♦J♠2♣ flop. Zhou called and Chang called all in for his last 2,000.
Zhou called a 16,000 bet from Cates on the 3♠ turn, but folded facing an 80,000 bet from Cates on the 8♦ river.
Chang turned over 9♠8♠ for a rivered pair of eights, which were best against Cates' A♦2♥ for a pair of deuces — meaning Chang tripled up and Cates took the side pot.
