The player in the big blind checked to another player in early position, who fired 5,600 into the middle. Cheong called from the hijack and the big blind then check-raised to 16,200. The initial bettor folded, but Cheong tossed in a call.
Both players checked the
turn, but when the
filled the river, Cheong's opponent bet 24,000. Cheong instantly called and his opponent tabled ![]()
for a flopped full house. Cheong flung his cards into the muck.
Cheong, a WSOP-bracelet holder and with over $14 million in live-career earnings according to thehendonmob.com, is still in decent shape with around 80,000 in chips.
