Cheong Chops Down Vamplew

Joseph Cheong
Joseph Cheong

We caught up with the action just as David Vamplew announced he was all in for his last 160,000 preflop. He was called by Joseph Cheong. Revealed hands showed that Vamplew was in rough shape, though, he had a decent chance to chop.

Showdown

Cheong: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}
Vamplew: {A-Hearts}{6-Spades}

The board ran out {5-Spades}{K-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{K-Spades}{7-Spades}, giving Cheong the nut flush and sending Vamplew to the rail.
