HomeHailong Huang faced another at risk moment in a hand against Aik Chuan. Action preflo began with Chuan raising to 6500 and finding three callers. At the flop 6♣ 8♠ 9♠, the blinds checked, Chuan bet 15k, Huang raised to 30k, and after the blinds folded, Chuan called.
On the J♥ turn, both players checked but on the river A♥, action resumed with Chuan announcing all in with his big stack. Knowing he was well covered, this sent Huang to the tanker. He eventually found the guts to call.
Chuan J♣ 10♠
Huang A♠ 4♠
Huang’s higher pair doubled him up to nearly 270k while Chuan dropped to around 230k.
