Cherry Ends the Night With a Bang After Taking Out Le

Cong Le bet 12,000 from early position on a flop of A♣J♥3♠ and Stephen Cherry called in the cutoff, as did Alec Wong in the small blind.

The turn was the K♣ and Le bet 20,000. Cherry then moved all in and Wong got out of the way.

Le went deep into the tank as he pondered the decision for his last 70,000. Tournament officials announced four more hands will be played at the end of the night, and one of the other tables had already finished up before this table had even begun their last four.

Le took nearly 10 minutes. "I'm not calling the clock," Cherry said. Le eventually called with A♦9♦, but Cherry showed him J♣J♠ for a set. Le was already drawing dead by the 2♠ river and was sent to the rail near the end of the night.
