Doubles For Robl and Cao

"I have a ten," the US pro replied, turning over , which was trailing to Tsang's , until the turn saw Robl make the straight. The river completed the hand and Robl stacked up to 275,000 while Tsang dropped to 450,000.

Rui Cao earned a double at the expense of Hau Lim Chan the next table over immediately afterward. It was Paul Phua who opened the action with an under-the-gun limp before Chan raised to 56,000 from middle position. Rui Cao casually threw out the call and Phua folded to take the action heads-up to the flop.

Chan open-shoved and Cao called immediately. Chan had while Cao had . The turn changed nothing, but the river gave Cao the straight and he climbed to 250,000 while Chan dropped to 350,000.
