Cheong Knocks One Out

Level 4 : 50/100, 25 ante
Joseph Cheong
Joseph Cheong

A short-stacked player shoved from under the gun for 850 and Joseph Cheong called from the cutoff. The all-in player drew two cards to Cheong's one.

Opponent: {7-}{3-}{2-}
Cheong: {8-}{7-}{4-}{2-}

Cheong turned over a {9-} for a ninety-eight, while his opponent turned over a {J-} and was drawing dead. He did, however, reveal a {4-} as his other card.

"Wished I'd have looked at that one first," he said.

Cheong is up to about 17,500.
