Cheung Straightens Out Trudeau
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Action folded around to Jeffrey Trudeau, who made up from the small blind, only for James Cheung to bet pot from the big blind. This then prompted Trudeau to three-bet pot, and both players were putting in 700,000 pre-flop.
The flop came 9♥6♥J♥ and both players checked to see the J♠ peel off on the turn, and again the action went check-check as it did on the 7♥ river.
"Straight" announced Cheung as he tabled 10♠8♣7♣6♦ and Trudeau tossed his cards into the muck after flashing A♦A♠XxXx
