Cheung Crushed By Crabs

Jonathan Plens opened from early position to 11,000 and both Chris Mozingo and Robert Cheung called out of the blinds.

The flop fell down {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and it was checked to Plens who led out for 17,000. Mozingo then check-raised to 45,000 to put Cheung into the tank.

After close to two minutes in the tank, Brandon Meyers called the clock, and as it ticked down 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 . . . "I'm all in," announced Cheung.

Plens snap-called and Mozingo passed and the cards tabled.

Cheung: {K-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Plens: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

With Plens' flopped set way out in front, Cheung was unable to find runner-runner and headed to the rail as Plens climbed to 520,000 in chips.
