Cheong Claims First Victim in First Hand

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Joseph Cheong raised from the early position, action folded to Andrew Sardella in the small blind who shoved for 52,200 and was called.

Andrew Sardella: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Joseph Cheong: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

The flop came {7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs} which kept Cheong ahead and got Sardella up from his seat.

The turn was the {j-Clubs} which gave Sardella a glimmer of hope as he picked up a gutshot to a Broadway but he bricked the river as the {4-Clubs} completed the board. They shook hands before Sardella made his way out of the Miranda Room and the table broke to balance the other tables out.
