Cheong Takes Another Pot

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Five players saw a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and they all checked.

The turn brought the {7-Clubs} and action checked around again.

The {J-Clubs} fell on the river and Kevin Gerhart checked from the big blind. Joseph Cheong bet 65,000 from under the gun, a player in middle position folded, as did the cutoff. Greg Merson was on the button and folded. Gerhart did the same shortly thereafter and Cheong took the pot.
