El Rais Folds On The River

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

After an open, Jan-Yue Chiang in the cutoff called, as did Mohamad El Rais in the small blind.

The first two players to act checked on 8♦9♠J♥, so Chiang bet 600. El Rais called, but not the third player.

On the turn A♣, it was El Rais who led with a bet of 4,000. Chiang raised to 8,800. El Rais called and saw the 3♣ on the river.

The Swiss player observed his opponent, but checked. Chiang bet 8,400 and El Rais decided to fold. It was a good fold as Chiang had Q♣10♣ for a flopped straight.
