Cho Eliminates Two Players

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Joon Cho opened to 5,200 from middle position and the player on his left shipped all in for 26,200. There was another all in for 24,200 on the button and the small blind flat-called. Cho looked back at his cards and also made the call, setting up a couple of side pots.

The flop came {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and both remaining players checked to the {4-Spades} on the turn. The small blind checked again and Cho checked back. The {2-Spades} on the river put four spades on the board and the small blind checked one more time. Cho looked at his cards again and quickly tabled {a-Spades}{7-Spades} for an ace-high flush.

Luckily for him, he avoided a penalty as there was a potential straight-flush on the board. However, Cho eliminated both of the all-in players to close in on 400,000 chips.
