Cheng Makes a Gaffe Against Jaffe
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Cheng Cheng opened to 20,000 from under the gun and Jonathan Jaffe defended in the big blind.
The flop of 9♣J♦8♦ checked through and Jaffe bet 52,000 on the 5♥ turn. Cheng called. Jaffe then moved all in for 225,000 on the 9♥ river and Cheng called.
Jaffe showed the goods with 10♠7♠ for a straight, enough to crush the pair of eights of his opponent with A♥8♥ for a double.
