Van Marcus seems to have figured out how he wants to play Tae Jun Noh in this heads up match. He raised to 100,000 preflop and was called. The flop came down {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

. Noh checked to Marcus, who made it 130,000 to go. Noh wasn't as quick on the draw this time when he called Marcus.

Both players checked the {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

turn. On the river {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

, Noh checked a third time. Marcus made what smelled like a value bet of 100,000, and again Noh stopped to consider what he should do. He decided to call and was shown Marcus' two pair, {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{8-Diamonds}

. Noh sighed and mucked.
