Chua Doubles Up

The Chuck Truck isn't out of luck yet. Charles Chua checked the big blind after Edward Sabat completed on the button. The flop came down all ragged, {2-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Chua checked to Sabat, who bet 100,000. Chua quickly called.

The turn brought a second heart to the board, the {9-Hearts}. Chua checked a second time, bringing a bet of 300,000 from Sabat. After about twenty seconds of thought, Chua moved all in and for the second time, Sabat snap-called.


Sabat: {J-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Chua: {Q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Sabat again showed top pair. For his part, Chua opened bottom pair with an overcard and a flush draw. The shouting in the gallery began, with each faction calling out for cards that would make their respective horse the winner. With Sabat standing over the table and Chua sitting down, the dealer delivered the final card of the board. It was the {2-Clubs}, making trip deuces for Chua and doubling him up. We're back to where we started.
