Cheong Does Not Follow Through
Level 10
: 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Joseph Cheong opened to 3,000 from middle position and received a sole call from the cutoff.
Both players checked through the 
flop to the 
turn. Cheong then led out for 7,500 but was unable to shed his opponent, who made the call.
Cheong checked on the 
river and his opponent checked back before turning over 
for ace high. That was good enough to scoop the pot as Cheong revealed he held 
for missed straight and flush draws. Despite losing the pot, Cheong is still among the tournament chipleaders.
