More Chips for Cheong

The action folded to Joseph Cheong who raised to 2,000 from the button before the flop, but he found only one caller from the big blind before both checking the flop of {J-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Spades} and the turn of the {9-Spades}.

However, after the big blind checked the river of the {4-Diamonds}, Cheong led out for 2,500. The big blind called, but Cheong's two pair with {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs} was best. Cheong's now up to more than 130,000 in chips after that hand.
