Leow Gets a Near Triple
Level 9
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
John Juanda opened with a raise to 14,000 and Ivan Leow called on the button with his short stack. Next to act was Chan Wai Leong in the small blind and he three-bet, making it 62,000. Action folded back to Juanda who four-bet all in. Leow tanked for a bit then called for 77,000. Chan then dropped into the tank, using a time extension before folding.
Ivan Leow: 
John Juanda: 
The flop came down 
.
"Oh," Juanda said. "That's a good flop for that hand."
The turn was the 
giving Leow two pair now.
"Chop it up," Juanda said with a smile.
The river was the 
which gave Leow a better two pair, and allowed him to double up, and nearly triple up with Chan's three-bet in the pot as well.
