Koon Busts; Hwang Vaults Into Chip Lead
Jason Koon opened to 1,300 before the flop and was three-bet to 3,100 by Sean Hwang. Koon four-bet to 7,100 and Hwang called.
The flop was ![]()
![]()
and Koon shipped all in for his last 24,500. Hwang quickly called and the hands were shown:
Koon: ![]()
![]()
Hwang: ![]()
![]()
Koon's ace-high was ahead but Hwang was drawing live and looking for a pair or a straight. The
turned and the
rivered, giving Hwang his straight and sending Koon packing just before dinner.
"He calls 24k with jack-high," said a dejected Koon as he walked away from the table to talk with Scott Clements.
