Cheong on the Rise

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

With roughly 21,000 in the middle, Joseph Cheong acted first on the river of the {2-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades} board. He opted to fire 16,000 from the big blind and Shane Slovick contemplated his decision. He tanked for a while and then let his hand go, allowing Cheong to rake in the pot.

Cheong, who had been down to a half of the starting stack earlier in the day, has been trending up in the recent hours, currently guarding around 82,000.

Warken Picks Off a River Bluff

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

A completed board of {9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Spades} was spread across the table and three players were still in the hand. The big blind checked, Tyler Warken checked from early position and the button tossed in a bet of 7,000 into a pot of around 9,000.

The big blind folded and Warken thought for over a minute before splashing in a call. "Good call," the button said as he sent his cards to the muck. Warken scooped up the pot and showed {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for just an ace-high call.

Diane Casino: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
David Peters: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}

Casino shook her head upon seeing she was crushed by Peters' aces, and no help would come for her on a {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} board to bust.

Ivanov Doubles With a Set of Eights

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

The {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop was on the table and Lyudmil Ivanov had bet 4,000 from the big blind in a pot that had a little over 9,000 in it. Richard Tuhrim called the bet from the cutoff.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and Ivanov fired a bigger bet of 12,000. Tuhrim asked how much Ivanov had behind and he showed one green 25,000 chip, one orange 5,000 chip, and 17 black 100 chips. Tuhrim then called.

The {5-Diamonds} river completed the board and Ivanov pushed his last 31,700 to the middle. Tuhrim counted out a call to see how much he would have left if he would make the call.

He ended up calling and Ivanov showed {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} which won him the pot.
