James Cheung

James Cheung: XxXx/J8108/Xx
Michael Mizrachi: XxXx/97QJ/Xx
Naoya Kihara: XxXx/A6104 - folded on sixth street

Michael Mizrachi just took his seat at Naoya Kihara's table and, on the first hand he played, called after Kihara completed. James Cheung also called.

Kihara bet on fourth street and both opponents called. Kihara bet again on fifth and Mizrachi called, while Cheung then raised. Kihara and Mizrachi both called.

Cheung bet again on sixth and Kihara folded, while Mizrachi stuck around to seventh. Cheung then bet, and Mizrachi called once more.

Cheung showed QQ9 for a straight and Mizrachi mucked, leaving himself with less than a big blind behind after just one hand.
