Cheung Doubles Through Haynes

WSOP Bracelet winner Robert Cheung open-shoved for 630,000 from early position and the action folded to Victor Haynes who called from the hijack seat. Everyone else folded and the hands were turned face up.

Cheung: {a-Hearts} {j-Diamonds}
Haynes: {q-Clubs} {q-Diamonds}

Haynes closed his eyes as the flop fell {a-Diamonds} {j-Spades} {8-Diamonds} and was not phased when he opened his eyes to see Cheung had stolen the lead. Cheung then turned around in his chair, and neither player was looking as the {10-Hearts} came on the turn giving Haynes eight more outs to a straight.

"Do it, do it, do it," Drazen Ilich chanted, rooting for the KO.

Again, neither player watched as the river brought the {8-Hearts} , but once a floorperson announced the card the two opened their eyes and Cheung was shipped the pot.
