Cao Gets Value With a Straight

Level 15 : 0/0, 40,000 ante

In a three-way limped pot, all players checked it to the [h9d6h7s] turn where Devan Tang hit a set with {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. He led out 130,000 but, unfortunately for him, Rui Cao just spiked a straight with {A-Spades}{8-Clubs}. Cao called and the {K-Hearts} river was checked by Tang. Cao sized his value-bet at 200,000 and Tang paid him off.

Fourth Spade Saves Cao Some Chips

Level 14 : 0/0, 30,000 ante

Picking up the action on the {A-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} turn with 685,000 in the pot, Rui Cao fired 275,000 with {A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} in position and Ivan Leow whiffed a check-raise to 600,000, having turned the nut straight with {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. Cao double checked his beholdings and then called.

The river card was the {K-Spades}, bringing fourth spade to the table and saving Cao from further loss as both players tapped the felt. Leow scooped the pot with the higher straight and increased his chip lead.

Jason Koon called with {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and his neighbor Ivan Leow raised to 250,000 with {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}. Koon accepted the price and they went to the {J-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} flop which remained checked.

Koon led out 225,000 on the {7-Diamonds} turn and Leow called with a turned flush draw. He got there on the {Q-Diamonds} river. Koon decided to go for a second barrel and blasted 450,000. Leow, however, announced a raise and Koon's ten-high went immediately into the muck.
